    Browsing the US HP site just now, I noticed that HP seems to have expanded its use of the t and z model number suffixes to indicate Intel or AMD processors. It appears that many consumer lines that used to be identified just by numbers (such as the Envy 15) now have the t or z suffix to indicate, respectively, Intel or AMD processors. There's no indication at this point that the new naming scheme indicates any lineup changes like an Envy 15z or an Envy 14z Spectre, but it might be worth watching.

    In the case of machines like the Envy 15, adding the t at the end seems to depersonalize it a bit to me unless there's a 15z counterpart to compare it to. Thoughts and opinions from the peanut gallery?
