Mark Coppock/Digital Trends

If you’re in the market for a new laptop, then the Memorial Day sales are what you need to be keeping an eye on. Right now, HP has slashed the price of the HP Spectre x360 convertible laptop by $150, bringing it down to just $900 — one of the many early HP Memorial Day sales happening now. That’s a great price for a laptop with the latest Intel Core i5 processor along with plenty of other great features. If you’re looking for a good laptop for all your productivity needs and you can’t resist the allure of a laptop that also doubles as a tablet, this is the device for you. Be quick though, as stock is sure to be strictly limited.

The HP Spectre x360 convertible laptop is a gorgeous laptop to look at. Improving even more on its looks from when we conducted our HP Spectre x360 review, the device looks super sleek while packing a lot under the hood. It utilizes the latest 11th-generation Intel Core i5 processor along with 8GB of memory, 256GB of SSD storage, plus Intel Iris Xe graphics. It’s the screen that you’ll end up loving the most though.

It’s a 13.3-inch diagonal FHD touch display, which means you can use it as both a regular laptop screen and as a tablet once you switch over to tablet mode. There’s support for using a stylus with it, too, so you can really feel in control of what’s on screen. It’s ideal for performing presentations in particular. Elsewhere are other useful features such as audio from Bang & Olufsen plus you can recharge it up to 50% in just 30 minutes thanks to speedy fast charging times. There’s an unhackable webcam kill switch and microphone mute button, too, for added peace of mind.

With everything you could need from a laptop for home, school, or work, the HP Spectre x360 is ordinarily available for $1,050 but right now you can snap it up for just $900. With a saving of $150, this is a great time to treat yourself to a new laptop to improve your working or studying patterns dramatically. Expect stock to be limited though so if you want it, snap it up fast.

A teenager allegedly used a VPN to cover his tracks while hacking a US jewelry retailer, but Microsoft knew anyway.

Court documents unsealed in the US case against Peter Stokes, a 19-year-old dual US-Estonian citizen accused of being a member of the notorious Scattered Spider hacking group, reveal that Microsoft provided the FBI with records tied to a tracking mechanism called the Global Device Identifier, or GDID.

The days of cheap Chinese AI models could be number as government mulls restrictions similar to the US
The AI world’s bargain aisle could be closed by China soon.

DeepSeek's R1 helped kickstart global interest in low-cost Chinese AI. This was followed by increasingly capable systems from Alibaba, ByteDance, and Z.ai. Some models can be downloaded, customized, and hosted independently, giving many developers an alternative to paying for access to expensive US platforms.

However, this bargain may soon face a geopolitical lock--and this time, it's because of China and not the US. Reuters reports that Chinese authorities have held meetings with Alibaba, ByteDance, and Z.ai about potentially restricting overseas access to the country’s most advanced AI systems. Discussions apparently included closed models and open-weight releases, along with technology that has yet to reach the public.

Microsoft pushed Copilot everywhere, but barely anyone bought it, and even fewer use it: Report
Users are barely showing up for Copilot

Microsoft has spent the past few years making Copilot extraordinarily difficult to avoid. It appeared in Windows 11, and soon found its way to Edge, Word, and almost everywhere else in Microsoft's software suite. New laptops even received a dedicated Copilot key. Microsoft wanted AI to become a daily habit, and it had hundreds of millions of existing customers to leverage.

But the latest adoption figures suggest that the distribution was quite disappointing. Microsoft revealed that Copilot 365 has more than 20 million paid seats. While that does sound impressive at a glance, this number is dwarfed when you compare the company's more than 450 million paid commercial Microsoft 365 seats. So fewer than 4.5% of those customers pay for the full Copilot experience.
