It has a glossy finish and is quite nice to look at. The screen is an 8.1 inch diagonal WXGA (1280×768) display and is quite bright. Users can also opt for XP as an OS option, which should play well in the targeted XP market. HP lists the weight as starting at 2.63lbs. Of course depending on how you configure the device will affect the weight. There is a 6 cell or a 3 cell battery option, and you can choose HD specs as well ranging from 120 to 160GB at 5400rpm or 7200rpm or an 4GB SATA Flash Module with SUSE Linux.
Have it your way with four OS options, three processor options, three memory options, five storage options, 3 wireless options, 2 battery options, even a VGA camera option.Īll that is missing is the partridge in a pear tree.Ī webcam and BlueTooth are options, as well, although I believe these both should come standard on all of these ultra-portables. The HP 2133 doesn’t box you into a configuration you don’t want. I love how it is listed in the press materials: The HP 2133 Mini-Note will offer a range of user configurable options that include everything from processor speed to operating system to hard drive size. If you’re looking for some heavy processing power, this isn’t he device for you. If you are a student or you’re headed into the cloud you are their target. Instead their eye is on those who need a mobile device for content consumption (the Internet) and light document creation. But keep in mind that HP is not looking at this for the power user. All of that yields a Vista Experience score of 1.7 with the processor as the governing mark there. It contains a 120GB HD spinning at 7200 RPM.
The version I’m evaluating comes with Windows Vista and is running a VIA C7-M Processor 1200Mhz running at 1.20GHz.
For its small size it has a nice size keyboard (92% full size) that works well in my hands.
It is designed and targeted for the education markets and also the mobile professional who wants and needs a keyboard to input data. No, it is not a Tablet PC, nor is it a UMPC with a touchscreen. I’ve had the good fortune to check out a pre-production model of the 2133 and for what and who it is designed for it will be a very popular machine, I have no doubt. The HP 2133 Mini-Note is quite a nice ultra-portable. I’m not sure about the “ not a thought” part. You’ll buy it like a handphone without a thought.” Well, starting at $499 for the Linux version and $599 for the Windows Vista version, it is close to the rest of the market that seems to have its sights set below $500. HP has gone on record saying that “ you won’t even need to consider this purchase.
