New HP laptops hope to make a fashion statement

By Derek Fung on 19 September 2008

At this week's HP event in Hong Kong, CNET Australia got its first up close and personal look at some of the company's upcoming laptops, from the new scratch-proof Elite Book range and a new female focused netbook by fashion designer Vivienne Tam, as well as several "imprint" Pavilions.

Inspired by jets
The new Elite Book range has its homing missiles primed for high-flying execs. Its chassis is made of lightweight magnesium, which is then thermally bonded — a technique used in aircraft manufacture — to its anodised aluminium casing.
