HP has released a line of six new notebooks, but the most interesting is the HP EliteBook 8440w, with a comfortable keyboard, a fast processor and durability. This one is a mobile workstation. In order to be called a workstation, certain software and hardware requirements must be met and the HP EliteBook 8440w meets many of them.

Obviously the one downside to the HP EliteBook 8440w is that it’s heavy at nearly 6 pounds, but it’s solid. It’s strong and rigid and should be able to withstand most of what you can do to it in your daily life.

It features a 14-inch screen and a Core i7-620M and an NVIDIA Quadro FX 380M. Microsoft Genuine Windows 7 Professional and a 9-cell battery run it all. The HP EliteBook 8440w costs over $1,600.
