then it's a misprint on HP's part. Either way, the hybrid HEVC decoding feature is only on the Windows drivers, and the Chromebox's firmware prevents it from being 100% functional in Windows, so it's doubtful that feature would be useful even if you did have a HD4400 GPU. If I have nothing better to do, at some point I might test that theory with my i3 chromebox, which does have the HD4400, but I'm fairly confident that's the case.
