HP today expanded its consumer and business notebook portfolios with 11 new models utilizing AMDs latest VISION Technology for exceptional performance at an affordable price. The new notebooks are in the HP Pavilion dv-series (Pavilion dv4, dv6 and dv7), HP Pavilion g-series (Pavilion g4, g6 and g7), HP ProBook b-series (HP ProBook 6465b and ProBook 6565b) and HP ProBook s-series (ProBook 4535s, 4435s and 4436s).
