What is the new HP Mobile Workstation naming strategy?
This generation of new HP Mobile Workstations are still managed by the HP Workstation team. Last generation mobile
workstations took on the “Z” naming convention. This new product design was called “ZBook” and has a numerical
identier that distinguishes screen size. With the product line refresh, we have moved to “G2.” For example, the
HP 15.6-inch ZBook is called “HP ZBook 15 G2,” etc.

products will be discontinued at the end of March 2015. The extended discontinuation dates allow our customers to have
a 5-6 month period to transition and deploy the new HP Mobile Workstation platforms. The HP ZBook 14 G2 is replacing
