HP Ships HDX Gaming Laptop


Back in May we had reported on HP’s HDX gaming laptop, that promised to challenge Dell’s stranglehold on powerful gaming machines. The laptop is now shipping and available. Specs-wise it packs in a 20.1" BrightView display and graphics powered by an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT graphics processor with 256MB of dedicated video memory. At the heart of the machine is a powerful Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 processor, along with 4GB of DDR2 memory. For storage 400GB is provided via two 4200RPM 200GB SATA HDDs. The optical drive used in the Pavilion HDX is an HD DVD unit with DL DVD+-RW capabilities. The OS being used on this laptop will be Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit.


It's a pity a product like this will never ever show up in India. Given the growing affluence of the Indian customer, companies might find more than a few takers for products like this in India.
