The AP, CNN, and Reuters report that Italian authorities are continuing to investigate last year’s sinking of Autonomy founder Mike Lynch’s superyacht, Bayesian, during a storm last year that killed seven people, including Lynch.

HP is announcing new 14- and 16-inch OmniBook 5 laptops at Computex, starting at $799 and $849, respectively. They’re expected in June and July, with 8-core Qualcomm Snapdragon X and X Plus chips, Windows on Arm, and 1920 x 1200 OLED displays.

HP CEO Enrique Lores on live television, addressing a class-action lawsuit against his company for blocking third-party ink:

HP’s new Chromebook Plus devices aim to fulfill the needs of today’s young people — who are looking, HP has determined, for “technology that is flexible, adaptable, and delivers powerfully immersive experiences, while keeping the planet in mind.”

HP is bringing a much welcome refresh to its Pavilion Plus line. The Pavilion Plus is a totally random assortment of features (OLED display, ultra-thin chassis, incredibly fancy webcam, an H-series processor) that really have no business being on the same device, and it is my favorite thing ever. (It’s also on our Best Budget Laptop list.)
