Alongside last week’s announcement of the HP MediaSmart Server’s arrival in the UK, HP also sent through details of new notebook and desktop releases which looked pretty cool.
HP Pavilion MS200 All-in-One PC
The MS200 is a non-touch all-in-one PC, with an 18.5 inch screen housing the display and PC components behind. At £499$599, it’s a lot cheaper than HP’s TouchSmart range, with a dual-core AMD processor and NVIDIA integrated graphics providing sufficient power for day to day computing at a reasonable price. A built in webcam, speakers and wireless networking completes the line up for tidy computing – ideal an an extra PC in the kitchen, lounge or desk. Think notebook glued to a monitor and you’re not too far away from the concept. It’s available from November 16th in the UK (October 18th in the USA) and should come packing Windows 7. Full details here.
HP Pavilion Elite HPE PC
At the other end of the spectrum comes a heavyweight – the HP Pavilion Elite HPE (High Performance Edition) PC is a Core i5/i7 based desktop with NVIDIA’s GTX260 graphics, designed for the tech enthusiast. The base offer comes with a Core i5 processor, 6GB RAM, Windows 7 64-bit, a 640Gb hard disk, dual layer DVD writer and the NVIDIA GeForce GT220 with 1024MB dedicated video memory, rising to 3839 Mb when required. That model is available for £800 from October 22nd and higher spec models (including Blu-Ray, RAM, Graphics and Processor upgrades) weigh in at £1000 and £1300 respectively. Head over to HP for full details.
HP Premium 2509m Display
HP’s 25” 2509m display is coming at you in December with full HD capabilities, a 3ms response time, 60,000:1 contrast, integrated speakers and HP’s BrightView and PowerSound technologies to improve video and audio performance (so it says here). The 2509 is also equipped with HP’s Helium tilt and swivel stand so you can adjust the screen angle exactly as you need it. Expect to see the display for £249.99 from the usual outlets.
