As a reply to Walmart’s request addressed to electronics manufacturers to come up with an environmental-friendly product, HP revealed its latest notebook computer called HP Pavilion dv6929wm Entertainment Notebook and won the Home Entertainment Design Challenge.
It’s not just a laptop but a whole eco-friendly package available at a price of $798, consisting of the HP Pavilion dv6929wm and the HP Protect Messenger Bag, forgetting about cardboard, foam or plastic materials used in standard electronics packaging. You can find it exclusively in 1,700 Walmart stores and 594 Sam’s Club locations in the United States.
The HP notebook PC's design is innovative, reducing packaging with 97% and, in the same time, reducing carbon dioxide emissions and conserving fuel. How does it do that? -By eliminating the need for 1 out of 4 trucks required for transporting the systems to the stores. How did HP manage to design it like that? –Well, according to the company’s latest press release, the packaging was redesigned and it replaced the protective shipping materials and boxes with the new HP bag, which is made of 100% recycled materials.
HP Pavilion dv6929wm is a system equipped for mobile entertainment with a 15.4-inch display, an AMD Turion X2 TL-60 Dual-Core processor of 2GHz speeds, 4GB RAM memory, and 250GB hard drive capacity. The user can play games, watch movies on the go and perform different tasks meant to increase productivity.
“This effort is an extension of our ongoing commitment to provide our shoppers with the best eco-friendly product offerings,” said Alex Cook, merchandise manager for Walmart Home Entertainment. “We received many strong ideas from different suppliers, but the innovative packaging with this HP laptop really stood out, and we are thrilled to make this great product available to shoppers in Walmart stores and Sam’s Club locations.”
