The HP ProBook is a line of laptop computers aimed towards businesses, originally produced by Hewlett-Packard and later by its successor, HP Inc., with a list price lower than that of HP's higher-end EliteBook series. At its introduction in 2009, HP sold both business-oriented desktops and laptops under the HP Compaq and HP ProBook brands respectively from 2009 to 2013.
History[]
S-Series (discontinued in 2012)[]
In April 2009, HP introduced the ProBook s-series (standard/essential) notebooks, which consisted of the Intel powered 4410s, 4510s, and 4710s (14", 15.6", and 17.3" screens, respectively) and the AMD powered 4415s and 4515s (14" and 15.6" screens, respectively). This was followed by the introduction of the 13.3" ProBook 4310s in June of the same year.
The s-series was updated in 2010 with Intel Core i3, i5, and i7 processors, a brushed aluminium case, chiclet keyboard, and multitouch ClickPad. Updates to the line in 2012 included a new exterior aluminium design.

B-Series (discontinued in 2012)[]
The ProBook B-series was announced on October 13, 2009, replacing the previous HP Compaq B-series with similar design in early models. All models still have a CD drive bay, docking port, pointstick options, screen latches, draining holes, easy-replaceable battery with additional slice options, TPM chip, socketed CPU, WLAN options and 2 RAM slots.
Two AMD-powered models were announced in 2009 — the 14" ProBook 6445b and the 15.6" ProBook 6545b; Their Intel-powered counterparts were announced three months later as the 14" ProBook 6440b and the 15.6" ProBook 6540b.; and the next-year upgrade is an AMD-powered 6455b and 6555b, and Intel-based 6450b and 6550b.
The B-series design was updated in 2011 with the Intel-powered 6460b and 6560b, and the AMD-powered 6465b and in 2012 with the Intel-powered 6470b and 6570b, and the AMD-powered 6475b. The updated sibling EliteBook line had an additional magnesium frame under screen top lid, the keyboard LED-backlight, the aluminium bottom-cover, the 17" workstation version and the additional security options.
