HP replaces Mini 1000 with Mini 110

,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux version starts at $279 and can be upgraded from an Intel N270 Atom 
| CPU to the slightly-faster N280 CPU and the RAM can be bumped from 1GB to 
| 2GB. The XP version starts at $329 and features the same CPU upgrade option, 
| although the RAM is stuck at 1GB thanks to Microsoft’s weird netbook rules.

Irate e-mails reveal HP, Microsoft strife

,----[ Quote ]
| A surprise decision by Microsoft jeopardized its relationship with PC giant
| Hewlett-Packard a year before Windows Vista's release, according to internal
| e-mails unsealed late Friday in U.S. District Court in Seattle. The messages,
| between top Microsoft and HP executives, shed new light on the
| behind-the-scenes turmoil that preceded the operating system's troubled
| debut.
|
| "You have demonstrated a complete lack of commitment to HP as a strategic
| partner and cost us a lot of money in the process," wrote HP executive
| Richard Walker in a January 2006 message to then-Microsoft Windows chief Jim
| Allchin. "Your credibility is severely damaged in my organization."
