Ao trocar o Intel Atom pelo AMD Fusion como principal componente do laptop dm1, a HP está na vanguarda de fabricantes apresentando PCs do tamanho de netbooks com desempenho de um notebook completo. Isto significa vídeo 1080p e gráficos DirectX em um laptop de 11,6 polegadas.

O dm1 tem cerca de 2,5cm de espessura e diz ter bateria com duração de 10 horas – coisas que sempre se espera de um netbook. Mas ao contrário dos seus irmãos com Atom, o dm1 consegue reproduzir vídeos em 1080p sem engasgar. Ele suporta até 8GB de RAM e tem disco rígido de 320GB, além de três portas USB 2.0, porta VGA e porta HDMI. E uma certa alegria de saber que você vai poder usar a porta HDMI.


Mas não fiquemos tão animados: o dm1 parece ser meio pesado com seus 1,6kg, e o processador vai só até 1,6GHz. Mas só as possibilidades gráficas já são um sinal promissor do que está por vir em dispositivos ultraportáteis com Fusion.

Os outros laptops da HP também têm novidades: os modelos Envy 17 e Pavilion foram atualizados para a segunda geração dos porcessadores Intel Core

. O Envy também ganhou a tencologia de resfriamento CoolSense, proprietária da HP, enquanto os desktops Pavilion receberam alto-falantes da Beats Audio.

O Pavilion dm1 estará disponível dia 9 de janeiro nos EUA por US$450, assim como os notebooks Pavilion, que custarão a partir de US$900 pelo modelo dv6. O novo Envy 17, no entanto, chega “em breve”.

The new HP Pavilion desktop PCs also will feature Beats Audio, which was created by Beats by Dr. Dre co-founders Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine to restore the emotion that is missing from digital music.

This year, most HP consumer desktops, laptops and minis are expected to ship with free 60-day Norton Internet Security(7) protection.
