"Hewlett-Packard has introduced a new wave of Envy and Pavilion thin and light laptops, including an 11.6-inch touchscreen model priced aggressively at US$399.

The lineup includes three TouchSmart laptops with touchscreens and two non-touch laptops. The less expensive touch models, the $399 Pavilion TouchSmart with an 11.6-inch screen and the $529 Envy TouchSmart 15 with a 15.6-inch screen, have Advanced Micro Devices' latest chips. New AMD chips code-named Kabini, Temash and Richland were announced on Thursday.

"We want to be aggressive with value touch notebooks," said Kevin Wentzel, technical marketing manager for HP."

"HP did not immediately provide more hardware specifications for the laptop. The laptop comes with Windows 8 and will start shipping in the U.S. on June 26. HP did not provide information on worldwide availability.

The $529 Envy TouchSmart 15 has a 1920 x 1080 pixel touchscreen. It has four speakers and is designed for entertainment, and AMD's processors have fast graphics processors that will allow for high-definition gaming. The laptop will be available on June 5 in the U.S."
