HP 530 Notebook
Slipping out quietly among the company's Santa Rosa updates, HP has launched its simplified HP 530 notebook. Although one of the company's least expensive notebooks, the 15.4-inch system borrows design cues from the tx1000 to add an element of style. Either system keeps prices down with 512MB of RAM and an 80GB hard drive as well as Celeron M or Core Duo processors.
The elemental model starts at $549 with a 1.46GHz Celeron M, a DVD/CD-RW combo drive, and Vista Home Basic. A second system is also on offer for $699 with a faster 1.6GHz Core Duo to help power Vista Business as well as a DVD-RW drive. Both should be available immediately. [via Laptoping]
