Happy Black Friday, y’all! I don’t know about you, but I have zero interest in standing in line at the toy stores this holiday season. It’s all about technology, whether it’s laptops, netbooks, surfaces, gaming systems or games. Luckily, Microsoft has just about everything the tech-loving boys and girls on my list this year!

The Microsoft Holiday Gift Guide

HP Spectre x2 – With a cool design featuring a kickstand and backlit keyboard, this 12-inch touchscreen Windows 10 device is a great holiday gift for experienced tech-lovers or those looking for their first laptop. Equipped with an Intel RealSense camera for Windows Hello, users can safely sign-in to this computer with their face, in place of a password. And with up to 10 hours of battery life, this is a fantastic device for all-day work or play. The HP Spectre x2 is available through retail stores and HP.com starting at $829.99.
