NEW YORK (CNNfn) - Hewlett Packard Co. said Monday it is cutting the price of
its Vectra VL business workstation line by up to 8 percent and is slashing the cost of
memory upgrades by up to 22 percent, effective immediately.
After the cuts, an HP Vectra VL computer with a 166-megahertz Pentium
processor, 16 megabytes of random access memory and a 1.6-gigabyte hard drive will
cost $984, down from $1,074.
The price of an HP Vectra VL PC with a 200-megahertz Pentium processor,
2.5-gigabyte hard drive, 32 megabytes of random access memory, 24-speed
CD-ROM and 16-bit sound card was cut to $1,388 from $1,495.
Hewlett Packard said the price cuts are an effort to bring computers using Intel's
new Pentium II microprocessor into the mainstream.
