By Popular Demand - HP brings Windows 7 PCs back 

Windows 8 has been around for almost two years now and while Microsoft has been pushing the tile-focused touch-enabled OS quite aggressively, it seems some of its partners think otherwise. HP is pushing Windows 7 as an default OS for their systems at least on their US website.  Checking ou the HP.ca site shows that they still "Recommend Windows" with visible Windows 8 branding. Does HP's renewed preference of Windows 7 reflect the rest of the PC industry? Hard to tell, but there are many users that greatly prefer the familiar look, feel and predictability of Windows 7.

HP gunning for mobile market with two new phablets

HP's long hinted that it may get back into the mobile market post-webOS. Now that they've sold off Palm's mobile operating system to LG, HP is betting on Android to power their Slate 6 and  Slate 7 tablets which feature voice calling. Looks like HP is shooting straight for the supersized smartphone market where it can make a dent. The new Jelly Bean powered slates are coming to India first but we'll hopefully see them come to North America sometime soon.
