HP has started selling its previously announced $199 Windows 8.1 notebook, the Stream 11, and the PC maker is throwing in a free $25 gift card to purchase apps and games from the Windows Store.

Microsoft first revealed HP's plans to release the cheap laptop back in July. The Stream 11 has an 11.6-inch anti-glare WLED-backlit (1366 x 768) display with an Intel Celeron N2840 processor that has a clock speed of 2.16GHz. Inside there is 2 GB of RAM and 32GB of eMMC flash memory for storage. Besides the $25 Windows Store credit, the HP Stream 11 comes with a one free year subscription of Office 365 Personal that's priced normally at $69.99. That's nearly $95 worth of freebies for this cheap notebook.

HP is also going to sell a $99 Windows 8.1 tablet, the HP Stream 7, sometime this November. Will you buy these cheap HP Windows 8.1 products for the holidays?
