5.0 out of 5 stars HP Mini 1000, February 3, 2009

This review is from: HP Mini 1010NR 8.9-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 512 MB RAM, 8 GB Solid State Drive, XP Home) (Personal Computers)

I got this netbook for class to take notes. I wanted something lightweight and easy, and that's exactly what I got! The battery even lasts through my 3-hour lectures. I do turn the brightness down though.

It has a great keyboard. It's bigger than one would expect and easy to type on. The screen is bright and the webcam sharp. The mouse pad has cool scrolling dots on the right, and the side click wasnt a big adjustment.

It's fast and mobile and has now become my main computer.

I'll keep this review short and sweet. This netbook is my new best friend! I had wanted to get a laptop for the longest time and when I got my tax return I finally headed up to Best Buy to look at them. I saw this netbook and fell in love. I ended up getting the netbook, external CD/DVD drive, a memory card, carrying case, wireless mouse, optimization and 2 year warranty for a little under 700 bucks. Pretty much every thing I need! I recommend finding a package deal like I did but I just wanted to let everyone know how sleek, fast and great this mini PC is. HP is the leading producer for netbooks right now.

I was trying to decide between this laptop and the Acer inspire one. I really like this netbook the keyboard seems bigger than the other netbooks that I looked at and the screen is a great size if you have good vision. I would say that the only reason to get the Acer is if you need more hard drive space. Just remember that the SSD or solid state hard drive wont break if you drop it like a regular hard drive in the acer, plus SSD is faster. I would say the other main reason I chose the HP over the Acer is that i feel safer with an HP product, especially if something goes wrong with it.
