HP and Disney Create a Star Wars Themed Laptop Like No Other
Bohs Hansen / 9 years ago
When it comes to fandoms, then the Star Wars fans will probably be one of the biggest groups around and also one where the ages span from very young to very old. With a new Star Wars movie just around the corner, the merchandise deals begin to roll in and we get all sorts of Star Wars branded items. One of them comes from HP that teamed up with Disney to produce this special edition version of their 15.6-inch Pavilion laptop.
The special edition Star Wars laptop is wrapped in a special Empire skin and the trackpad got the X-Wing targeting computer pattern. The LED lit keyboard looks really sweet and gives a nice contrast to the grey laptop. The customized theme comes with the Aurebesh font and a best of all, your trashcan is now a Death star while sounds such as R2D2 and lightsaber swooshes provide the right sound ambiance.
If the Star Wars laptop isn’t enough for you, then you’ll also be able to get a Star Wars themed wireless mouse and a laptop sleeve that will cost you an extra £26 each.
The Star Wars goodies don’t stop here and HP also loaded it with the Star Wars Command Center that will allow users to browse through behind the scenes photos, storyboards, artwork, classic photos, and design documents. A grand total of over 1100 images from the past 40 years of Star Wars.
The hardware in itself isn’t bad, but it isn’t spectacular either. You get a Full-HD 1080p display, an Intel i5 or i7 CPU, up to 12GB RAM, and up to 2TB storage. The basic model will cost you £461 over the £362 that it would cost without the Star Wars theming which is quite a bit more. You do however get a one-year membership for Fandor included, with access to a library of indie movies.
