The HP 2133 Mini-Note has a lovely high screen resolution, meaning text and icons will appear very small...

Of course you can change the settings, and in Firefox it's just a matter of CTRL + to zoom in/ make text larger. With my mini-note running VIsta Business it's still hard to find that perfect balance between legibilty and getting the damn windows to fit on the ickle screen - it can be that you up the dpi, then find that the OK & Apply buttons in, say, Control Panel windows are trapped off the bottom of the screen.

Which is irritating. Or perhaps I am missing something?

weak.
I was interested in it for the looks over the EEE, bu that's lame. I don't want tsomething ont he verge of crumpling over cpu strain over basic shit]]>Jun 25th 2008 9:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/
I've been using one of these on my desk at work for a month or so now. I'm constantly carrying my computer around with me and taking it to meetings and stuff and I love this little mini-note. I do web dev on it while listening to YouTube playlists, FLAC or MP3 files, etc. etc. all day long. Right now I've got Outlook 2007, Firefox, Photoshop CS3, my PHP IDE, Winamp playing FLAC files, and my FTP client open and it's running without a hitch.

I installed this update today and I did notice a difference in the "snappiness" of applications having this many open at once.]]>Jun 25th 2008 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Jun 25th 2008 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Jun 25th 2008 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Jun 25th 2008 2:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Jun 26th 2008 6:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Jul 7th 2008 4:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/new-via-drivers-provide-boost-in-hp-mini-note-2133-performance/Aug 11th 2008 5:41PM
