Being the world's greatest supplier of personal computers, HP is always working on some new computer, in this case having completed the development of the newest Pavilion series notebook.

One could say that the collection of Sandy Bridge-powered laptops on today's market is already large enough, but it looks like there is still room for more.

In fact, new notebooks are getting released all the time, with or without adjoining press releases, this being one of the latter cases.

Basically, HP has finished its newest Pavilion series laptop, one dubbed g6s and powered by a second generation Intel Core chip.

It already has its own page in the HP webstore, where users can set orders in exchange for $549.99 or more.

The strongest CPU option available, to be more specific, is the Core i7-2620M, a dual-core chip with 4 MB of L3 cache memory, plus base and Turbo Boost frequencies of 2.7 GHz and 3.4 GHz, respectively.

Said CPU has its own built-in graphics (Intel HD 3000) while being backed up by a solid amount of random access memory (up to 8 GB of RAM of the DDR3 variety are present).

What's more, those that don't feel like the integrated graphics is enough can go for the AMD Radeon HD 6470M discrete solution.

Along with 750 GB of storage space (provided by a hard disk drive) and a DVD writer, all the above are packed inside a frame of 15.6 inches, the screen being an LCD with a native resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels (HD).

As for connectivity and I/O, HP stuck to what works, namely a webcam, 10/100 LAN, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Altec Lansing speakers and optional Bluetooth.

The hardware is handled by the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit SP1, while power is provided by a battery that can last for up to 4.25 hours on a single charge.

Finally, the case of the notebook can be colored luminouse rose, pacific blue, sweet purple and sonoma red, plus charcoal gray, all of them glossy.
