HP resurrects Windows 7 PCs 'by popular demand'

Windows 8.1 isn't getting a lot of love from Hewlett-Packard.

The computer maker has begun offering a handful of desktop and laptop PCs running Windows 7, touting the older operating system as "back by popular demand." To spur sales, HP is also offering the Core i5- and i7-powered machines at a $150 discount.

As pointed out by The Verge 's Tom Warren, the home section of HP's retail Web site also offers Windows 8.1 machines for sale, but the focus of the page is definitely machines running Microsoft's 4-year-old operating system.Although Windows 8.1 has managed to grab a healthy number of users since its debut last October, the promotion is apparently catering to the vast majority of Windows users who prefer the older operating system. While Windows 8.1 has snagged 3.6 percent of the desktop operating system market in three months, it still trails Windows 7 and Windows XP wide a margin. Windows 7 was still used by 47.5 percent of all desktop PCs, according to Web tracker Net Applications in December. Windows XP, the 12-year-old OS that Microsoft will stop supporting in April, is still used by 29.9 percent of desktops, nearly three times the combined market share of Windows 8 and 8.1, according to Net Applications.

Mercedes-Benz gives new C-Class a high-tech spin

DETROIT -- The midsize sedan segment is important for any automaker, and for Mercedes-Benz, it is bread and butter. The C-Class not only makes up a major portion of Mercedes-Benz sales, but also serves as the first taste of the brand for many buyers. At the 2014 Detroit auto show, Mercedes-Benz showed the newest generation of this most important model, one that it can little afford to get wrong.

And from all appearances, Mercedes-Benz got the right mix of features and design.

The body of the new C-Class maintains the same general lines as the previous generation, with a short trunk following behind the cabin. Subtle styling changes include organically molded shapes in front, such as the sensuous grille bars, and a sporty, raked trailing edge for the undercarriage. A glass roof is a modern touch. As with the current generation, buyers can opt for a standard model with the classic Mercedes-Benz hood ornament, or a Sport version with the badge embedded in the hood.

At 3.7 inches longer and 1.7 inches wider, the new C-Class offers more room for rear passengers, which will likely make it more suitable as a chauffeur-driven vehicle in the Chinese market.

To improve efficiency, Mercedes-Benz used aluminum extensively throughout the body, resulting in a 220-pound weight decrease.
