The good:
Impressively light and attractive, not a burden to carry around daily.
Great screen resolution.
Keyboard comfortably sized.
Easy RAM upgrade.

Not so good:
Battery life only around 2 hours.
Debilitating screen glare in the sun.

I bought this netbook about two weeks ago, and it is great. I am in the Navy and it is perfect for when I am out on deployment, not much space on the boat. I tried 4 other netbooks before I finally decided to go with the HP mini. I think that HP really knocked it out of the park with this one. I only have two gripes with it.

:One: Needs a much larger battery, my computer dies after watching just one movie. 2 hours max, with screen brightness turned all the way down.

:Two: The LEDs in front on the power button and the WLan indicator are nice at first, but I would really like a way to turn them off, when I am laying down with my computer on my chest they can be very blinding.

Other then that though a very nice, solid computer and I would recommand buying one.

I bought my HP mini notebook about a week ago and have thoroughly enjoyed it since. It is perfect for my writing and for keeping notes while studying at home or at the library. As long as that's all you need it for, this little gem will work beautifully, and the XP is a WONDERFUL break from the Vista operating system. Highly portable, highly recommended. Memory is upgraded easily if you need such.

This thing is compact and lite. The screen is bright the sound is great and the keyboard has full size keys and has a built in web cam which is awesome! The only thing that I do not like is that if you are outside the screen has a very strong glare, and you can't see anything at all. Also if you buy this, Please buy a mouse to go along with it! LOL my pet peeve of all laptops! Overall it is excellent and I would recommend it to anyone!

wonderful mini note book with full size key pad. Unfortunately, it has to be completely wireless. 60 Gb hard drive is barely adequate. Competitor comes in with 160 Gb hard drive.

I love my HP Mini Computer but found just one con, the battery life doesn't last the 3 hours as explained in the product overview. Besides that, it is a great computer if you travel a lot or like to surf the web. I recommend it!
