Shopping on Amazon: The HP Omen Laptop
ByHenry Neufeld February 18, 2017February 18, 2017

I had an opportunity to look at this computer this week in the flesh, or better in the silicon, and so I thought I’d put it up here for shopping at Amazon.com. This is a high end computer for gaming or serious business applications that require graphics or very high speed. Key elements to look…
