On top of two new notebooks, Hewlett-Packard took the time Wednesday to announce a new line of Pavilion desktop PCs and Media Center PCs to attendees at CeBIT America in New York.
The new line of Pavilions are designed for entry-level media enthusiasts, while customers looking for more power will be steered toward the new HP Media Center PC m200 series, the Palo Alto, Calif., company said in a release.
The new m200 Media Center PC runs Microsoft's Windows XP Media Center Edition, and comes with a television tuner card and several different ports for audio and video output and input. A configurable model will be available on July 9 for a base price of $999 with a 2.4GHz Pentium 4 processor from Intel, 512M bytes of DDR (double data rate) SDRAM (synchronous dynamic RAM), a 80G-byte hard drive, and a GeForce4 MX440 graphics card from Nvidia.
Three fixed-configuration Media Center PCs will be released in July, HP said. The m260n will come with a 2.6GHz Pentium 4 processor with hyperthreading, 512M bytes of DDR SDRAM, a 120G-byte hard drive, a DVD+RW/CD-RW drive, and the GeForce4 MX440 card for an estimated $1,299 in the U.S on July 13. The m270n comes with a 2.8GHz Pentium 4 processor with hyperthreading, 512M bytes of DDR SDRAM, a 160G-byte hard drive, a DVD+RW/CD-RW drive with a separate DVD-ROM drive, and a GeForceFX 5200 graphics card for an estimated $1,599 in the U.S. on July 20.
