8GB SSD & 3 cell battery, not the best deal out there. I do like that HP finally got their head out of from their asses & slapped in an Atom processors. The Via chipset was hurting 'em I think. I do really like the keyboard on these hp's! It'll be interesting next week to see what comes out for CES!

It's a shame that in losing the Via chipset, they also lost the better resolution display

#6 - Agreed, why oh why can't the netbook makers give us standard resolution? I wish mine had a standard resolution but I can manage without it.

yep, drop in resolution and tiny SSD = completely pointless laptop.

afa.net -- "America's Largest Pro-Family Action Site." Hmm... Personally, I'm against "family action" and every family that is created should be sent a sympathy card. What a line of you-know-what. Looks like #11 is the propaganda-promoter.

#11, DUDE, take your meds & grab a clue. Your extreme religious right wing agenda's cruise ship is leaving the dock. If you swim real fast, you might just catch it before you drown.

#11, the only way the 'net is about family is if watching pron makes you boink someone and get her pregnant... which is actually more likely if you get up from the computer.

Let's all boycott the American companies that support sex-pervert agendas and instead give our business to certain third-world companies that use slave or child labor. No need to worry about sex-pervert agendas there!
