I was hoping to make this computer a hackintosh as well.

Personally, I really like the way it looks and I'm feeling the urge to move on from my Eee PC 701...

Although my favourite thing about the 701 which has stopped me from upgrading so far is that with the fan unplugged it's completely and utterly silent... Perfect when doing work.]]>Mar 9th 2009 3:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 9th 2009 3:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 9th 2009 3:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 9th 2009 4:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 9th 2009 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/
The worst thing about the HP is that the thin profile means a 1.8" drive, meaning S-L-O-W. I presume there are options for replacing the drive with an SSD, and that might make the thing quite snappy. I'm waiting for the HD version of the HP, what 2140? which I assume will ship around the same time as Dell's does. Wondering if the 1366x768 screen at 10" will be too squinty though.

If they can get one of these to the point where the multi-touch scrolling is really responsive (e.g. like an iPhone, or a Pre), then maybe the existing x600 (or god, even x576) rez might be more livable.]]>Mar 9th 2009 8:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/
1) It's way more expensive for comparable specs, at least $100 more
2) The screen is lower resolution. (1024x600 on the EeePC versus 1024x756 on the Dell)
3) The battery life is much shorter.]]>Mar 9th 2009 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/
Too many people are focused on battery life at the expense of usability.

You might like it, but I hate the 1000 HE.]]>Mar 9th 2009 8:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/
I find the rest of your claims a bit unbelievable, though. The EeePC 1000HE weighs 1.45kg with battery (compared to 0.99kg for the 9" EeePC models, and the same as all the other 1000Hx models). The Thinkpad T42 weighs 2.6kg. That's a pretty big difference! Enormous, even. The Thinkpad is nearly double the weight.

At its thickest point, it's 3.8cm thick, which is slightly thicker than the T42. The difference is that the T42 is about 3.6cm thick everywhere (or at least half of it, it seems to taper a bit) while the EeePC ranges from 2.9cm tall to 3.6cm thick (it's primarily 3.8cm where the battery extends, and thinner elsewhere). I guess you could consider that too thick, although if you found the T42 to be thin, the EeePC being about the same shouldn't be too thick.

For comparison, my current 17" desktop replacement weighs 3.5kg and is 4.1cm thick.

I can certainly empathize with your complaints over the trackpad, as I used to have a Compal laptop with a pretty iffy trackpad that drove me nuts. But you seem to be off-base with the weight complaint.]]>Mar 9th 2009 9:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 9th 2009 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/--The 1000HE has a nice keyboard, great battery life, and good price; however, it's not as slim as the mini 10, kinda chunky on the underside (The top lid is fine though), the eeepc brand/logo kills it.
--The mini 10 is nice and slim, I like the trackpad, keyboard is pretty good I suppose, the 720p optional screen sounds nice, but will jack up the price; but... Dell went and killed it with the non-user upgradeable ram and the high price for the specs compared to other netbooks... oh, and the battery life isn't great.

My [suggestions] to both companies:
--Asus, redesign the eeepc logo (use a different font and position it better I suppose), or just get rid of the eeepc brand and just use the Asus brand name.
--Dell, make the ram user upgradeable, use Li-Pol batteries instead of Li-Ion (like the 1000he), offer a better price (But I suppose it has to do with manufacturing costs...idk really.)


OKKKK, enough of my rant. It feels nice to let it out... I might just go with the 1000HE and put a neat sticker over it.... or hold out for something better.]]>Mar 9th 2009 8:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/Mar 10th 2009 12:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/May 29th 2009 8:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/09/dell-inspiron-mini-10-gets-reviewed/http://www.hunt360.net/dell-inspiron-mini10-battery.htm
