HP Mini Vivienne Tam






This special edition netbook is named after the American fashion designer Vivienne Tam. It is sooo pretty, the perfect valentine gift for your girlfriend *hint* *hint*. Who wouldn't want fashion, design combined with technology? This 10'' laptop is the perfect accessory for each girl on travel. It's design is unique with the flowers and the color pink is really popping out. It's every girl's dream I say.

Sony VAIO VGN-P15G review


The good: Elegant, thin design; large keyboard; multiple networking and connectivity options; high-resolution screen; less expensive than Sony's other UMPC experiments.

The bad: Stuck with Windows Vista (for now); trackpoint navigation isn't ideal.

The bottom line: Sony's upscale Atom-powered Lifestyle PC has the components of a cheaper machine but the design of a more expensive one. The end result will be a useful travel PC for some and a conversation piece for others.

They didn't bother talking to each other but instead each of them was so into their netbook that there was absolutely no communication between them at all.So geeky goooosh!!!!!!

HP Mini 2140 Review




It looks so sexy whuah

By Dan Ackerman, CNET.com , CNET Asia

Even though the HP Mini 1000 is only a few months old, Hewlett-Packard was actually an early player in the Netbook field. The company's business system side came up with the Mini-Note 2133 in spring 2008, with a solid, brushed-metal chassis and a nearly full-size keyboard. Unfortunately, this predated Intel's Atom CPU, and rather than use the Celeron processor that came with the very first Netbooks, HP went with an underpowered Via C7-M, which pretty much killed any chance it had of becoming a mainstream product.

Now that the plastic-clad, Atom-powered consumer version has become a hit, HP's business side is taking another crack at the Netbook market with a radically updated version, the HP Mini 2140.

Design

It keeps the aluminum construction and big keyboard, but updates the components to an Intel Atom CPU, and adds an accelerometer for the hard drive, and a full ExpressCard/54 slot--a Netbook first (Lenovo's S10 has a smaller Express Card/34 slot). Thanks to those added features--and some concerns about the added weight aside--the 2140 is currently our favorite Netbook less than S$1,000 (US$669.21).
Processor 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270
Memory 1GB, 800MHz DDR2
Hard drive 160GB 5,400rpm
Chipset Mobile Intel 945GSE
Graphics Intel GMA 950 (integrated)
Operating system Windows XP Home Edition SP2
Dimensions 261 x 166mm
Height 26.7mm
Screen size (diagonal) 10.1 inches
System weight / Weight with AC adapter 1.19kg/1.72kg
Category Netbook


The HP Mini 2140 shares the same basic silhouette as the earlier Mini 1000 and Mini-Note 2133 systems. Because it has an aluminum case, like the 2133, it's a little heavier than the plastic Mini 1000; it's a tradeoff that may be worth it, however, as the metallic Mini 2140 feels as if it'll stand up to the rigors of the road better than a plastic Netbook.

Features

The biggest selling point for HP's Netbooks has always been the fantastic keyboard, which HP claims is 92 percent of the size of a full-size laptop keyboard. Other Netbooks have been plagued by tiny chiclet-like keys which make typing a pain and typos plentiful. By expanding the keyboard right to the edges of the system, HP is able to fit bigger keys into the tray than other Netbooks (and even ultraportable laptops). The result is a comfortable typing experience that takes a tiny bit of adjustment (as the keys are very close together), but one that is, thus far, our favorite on a sub-12-inch notebook. The touchpad has an unusual shape, stretched into a letterbox-like wide rectangle, and the mouse buttons have been moved to the left and right sides of the touchpad. This permits the system to have a minimal amount of wasted wrist rest space, but it's a somewhat awkward compromise, especially if you do a lot of vertical scrolling or right-clicking. The 10.1-inch widescreen LED display has an unusual 1,024 x576 native resolution, which is a few pixels shy of the 1,024 x 600 we typically see in Netbooks. The end result is largely unnoticeable, but a Windows XP pop-up window expressed concern that we weren't running at a standard resolution.

HP Mini 2140 Average for category
Video VGA VGA
Audio Headphone/microphone jacks, stereo speakers Headphone/microphone jacks, stereo speakers
Data Two USB 2.0, SD card reader Two USB 2.0, SD card reader
Expansion ExpressCard/54 None
Networking Ethernet, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Ethernet, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
Optical drive None None


Besides its big keyboard, the Mini 2140 has one major selling point that no other Netbook currently offers: A full ExpressCard/54 slot. Lenovo's S10 has a half-size ExpressCard/34 slot, but there are fewer options for add-on peripherals in that size. We rarely find that we actually need an ExpressCard slot for anything, but some rely on them for mobile broadband modems, memory-card readers, or even TV tuners.

Performance And Battery Life

HP offers a handful of fixed configuration versions of the 2140, but we're perfectly happy with the basic S$799 (US$534.70) model which has an Intel Atom CPU, 1GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard drive. For S$200 (US$133.84) more, a smart upgrade may be an identical version with 2GB of RAM with XP Professional.

Intel's single-core 1.6GHz Atom CPU offers enough computing power for the basic tasks for which Netbooks are designed--namely Web surfing, working on documents, and some basic multimedia playback. A dual-core ultraportable, such as Lenovo's U110, was clearly faster, especially when multitasking, but the Mini 2140 offered better performance than Sony's new Atom-powered VAIO P-series Lifestyle PC, thanks to the latter's Windows Vista operating system.

The Mini 2140 ran for 3 hours 11 minutes on our video playback battery drain test using a six-cell battery. That battery sticks out from the back of the system somewhat, and the basic three-cell battery was only about 35 minutes shy, so you'll have to decide between longer life and easier portability.
