HP has kept the ball rolling by introducing their new ProBook notebooks which all sport new Phenom II CPUs from AMD. Like the Acer Aspire models from earlier today, these sport the X3 / X4 CPUs. The 14-inch 6455b (pictured above) and the 15.6-inch 6555b can be configured to run on the newer chips or the older Athlon II and Turion II CPUs as well. They both sport ATI Radeon HD 4250 or the newer Radeon HD 540V graphics. That's not all though, the 14-inch 6450b and 15.6-inch 6550b ProBook notebooks were also announced and they're highly customizable. They're both sporting dual-core Core i3 / i5 / i7 CPU options. The AMD-based notebooks will start at $779 while the Intel based ones will start at $849. The larger 15.6-inch models are expected in June.

Later this month, HP will release the 13.3-inch 4325s, 14-inch 4425s, and 15.6-inch 4525s notebooks. They all sport Athlon II / Turion II / Phenom II CPU options along with your choice of ATI Radeon HD 530V or the faster ATI HD 5250 graphics. These will start at $629.

Last, but not least, is the 14-inch 425 and the 15.6-inch 625 notebooks. They both have Phenom II CPU options, but they aren't as highly customizable as all of the other previously mentioned notebooks. These are directed at people on a budget and it'll be available this June for a starting price of $549.
