Tiny notebook works for on-the-go use

,----[ Quote ]
| HP's bold entry into the mini notebook market comes in the form of the 2133 
| Mini-Note PC, a 9-inch laptop with a tailored look and magnesium alloy 
| chassis that starts at $599 for Windows (or $499 for Linux) and tops out at 
| $749 with extras including Bluetooth, a Webcam, a 7,200 rpm hard drive, and 
| 2GB of RAM.

CNN also ought to publish reviews of the many laptops which run GNU/Linux, not
that Microsoft-taxable sellout.

| The HP 2133 Mini-Note PC (starting at $599 for Windows Vista Basic, $499 for 
| SuSE Linux, and $749 as configured) is a bit more expensive and weighs more 
| than the competition, but the system’s unique strengths make it a good 
| investment for students, mobile professionals, and anyone else looking for an 
| affordable, highly portable computer.

HP strikes chord with Mini-Note PC

,----[ Quote ]
| Like the three aforementioned machines, the Mini-Note is not aimed at the 
| mass market. It starts on the low end at $499 for the Linux, SSD version, but 
| a fully configured device with Vista can top out at $1,200.
