Keeping in mind the priorities of today's young generation, HP has factored in features like the flush glass finish and the 3D drive guard.

It is nice that HP is realeasing New Laptops but what about Service and Support of the older ones. The parts of recently launched notebooks are not available with them so what is the use of launching new ones when HP cannot support the other models.
