New releases of the week: HP dm1z

 

New release for this week is the HP Pavilion dm1z, HP's latest AMD addition to the Pavilion line. This 11.6" computer is branded as a full laptop while being a lot closer in size and power to a netbook.,

New releases of the week: HP Envy 14

  

New release for this week is the HP Envy 14, HP's latest addition to the svelte Envy series. Despite coming in as the least expensive entry point into the Envy line, it strikes an effective middle ground between portability and power.

The HP Envy 14 is now available starting at $1049 after a coupon. It's not a low starting price, but it is the least expensive of all the HP Envy laptops, and has the same artful and stylish design as the rest of the series. The 14.5" laptop weighs 5.25lbs and the base price gets you Core-i3-370M, 1GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650, long lasting battery and perhaps most interestingly of all, packs a 1600x900 resolution standard.

At the same time, the HP Envy 13 just got a huge price drop, giving another comparatively inexpensive option for Envy lovers. This 13.3" laptop weighs just 3.8lbs, and has a nice coupon on it so that you can really spec it up and still end up paying only $1099.
