HP continues on it's quest to make the public conscious of how important sound quality is in a laptop, and that we should no longer be subject to terrible sound emissions. Enter the HP Summer Music Series. They finally made it to Miami.

Giving you a chance to try out their newest laptop with the Beats Audio, the well known collaboration between HP and Dr. Dre, AND enjoy see a free Big Boi concert? It really doesn't get any better. It is a public event but I suggest you get there early.

Big Boi will be performing tracks from the recently released album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty along with OutKast classics.

They WILL be streaming live on the HP Myspace page so check that out if you're not in Miami next week.
