GBM Shortcut: HP Elitebook 2760p Bluetooth Audio Streaming from iPhone

GBM InkShow: Facial Recognition on the HP Elitebook 2760p

I’m no proponent of biometric security. I’ve long argued that it’s a convenience, not a true security measure.

HP Elitebook 2760p Review: Weight, Stamina, & Toughness

Like Wolverine from the comic books, the HP Elitebook 2760p convertible tablet packs a lot of power and weight in a relatively small package. Its weight, toughness, and stamina form a triangle of intertwined traits that work with and against each other.

GBM Shortcut: HP Elitebook 2760p Webcam Challenge

Camera specs like resolution and fps are good to know but don’t necessarily tell you how good the video and photo quality is. Thus, I thought it would be helpful to share some actual photo and video recorded from the HD webcam of the HP Elitebook 2760p. And I spiced it up a notch by [...]

GBM Shortcut: A Day in the Sun with the HP Elitebook 2760p

It’s the question that gets asked of any tablet: “How’s the outdoor visibility?” So I decided to answer it first with my review of the HP Elitebook 2760p, the latest version in this series of rugged business-class convertibles.
