- 1 Comment
The HP Mini 1000 has been getting a lot of hype recently, but that doesn’t mean HP is backing off. It has returned to its original netbook series, the Mini-Note 2100, and has delivered a new one: the HP Mini-Note 2140. And if we may professionally say so, it looks extremely cool.
The new netbook has dropped the VIA C7-M processor of previous machines and replaced it with the now-standard 1.6 GHz Intel Atom. It is supposedly being developed for businesses, and has a HDD which can encompass 80 or 160 GB of space.
It has a 10-inch screen with some strange resolutions - 1366 x 768 or 1024 x 567. It’s keeping the ExpressCard slot, and on most counts, the HP Mini-Note 2140 stays the same as its predecessors.
The new netbook will start at $499 with choices of XP Home or Pro, SuSe Linux, FreeDOS, Windows Vista Home or Premium. It’s a great improvement over the Mini 1000 so it should do well on the market.
