HP launches five new ENVY series laptops

ENVY, HP’s family of thin and light notebooks
just grew by five members. HP just announced
the ENVY Spectre XT, ENVY Sleekbook 14 and
15.6-inch and the ENVY Ultrabook 14 and 15.6-
inch models.
Priced at $999, the ENVY Spectre XT comes with
a 13.3-inch 1366 x 768 resolution display, third
generation Intel Core (Ivy Bridge) processor, 4GB
RAM, 128GB SSD, USB 3.0, HDMI, Ethernet, Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, backlit keyboard, Beats Audio with
quad speakers, eight hours battery life, Windows
7 Home Premium 64-bit with two-year
subscription to Norton Internet Security, full
versions of Adobe Photoshop and Premiere
Elements 10. It will go on sale on June 8.

inch model gets 320GB storage and nine hours of
