I wish there was a site people could go to to give away Windows licenses that came with machines they just got to run other OSes on. I guess Craigslist'll have to do.

I'd say someone who took the course of action you described over $20 is... I mean, Windows takes a bit more than two hours to get basically functional, and I'd rather flip burgers than set it up myself..]]>Apr 18th 2009 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/
Regardless, who's to say its any different for those who pirate OSX, i guess it really makes no difference. Then again the average Jane and Joe aren't going to have the know hows on how to pirate efficiently and productively, so your case in point is still valid, for someone who is unknowledgeable in that field. ]]>Apr 18th 2009 12:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/Apr 18th 2009 2:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/Apr 17th 2009 10:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/]]>Apr 17th 2009 11:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/Apr 18th 2009 12:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/

Over all it's a great netbook, the keyboard is awesome, the speakers are amazing, and while the resolution is annoying everything else about the screen is great. Would recommend it to anyone that doesn't want to pay for Windows. Additionally, check Logic buy for deals on these, they come up all the time.

They both had the same model number and UPC.

This really pissed me off... BEWARE...

I returned the one with the smaller screen.

The TrackPoint nipple lets you cover the entire screen without lifting up your finger, and since it's pressure sensitive you can be very accurate. In fact despite using Photoshop and Illustrator extensively, I put off the purchase of an external mouse for my laptop for over a year-- simply because I wasn't really missing anything.

And while I'm on the topic of "awesome IBM inventions", doesn't anyone here remember the Butterfly keyboard from about 10 years ago? Seems like that would be a great solution to the problems of the tiny netbook keyboards.]]>Apr 17th 2009 11:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/Apr 17th 2009 11:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/

My favorite solution for small format netbook was used by the Compaq Aero - quite a while back. I think it had a 12 inch screen. They used a track marble in the lower right front corner. The two buttons we actually on the side of the laptop. You manipulate the marble with your thumb.

I thought it worked perfectly. However, if you are a lefty, you are SOL. Many lefties used it with little effort.]]>Apr 19th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/17/how-would-you-change-hps-mini-1000-mi/
Well I allready have an HP mini 1000. I love it.

1. Get rid of linux! The software I need to run can't run on linux anyways.

2. Add built in GPS.

3. Include a 128gb SSD

4. Include eSata/firewire interface

5. Put the mouse buttons on the bottom of the mouse pad.

6. MAKE THE MOUSE PAD ADA compliant! For people that have artifical silicon/metal fingers MOUSE PADS DON'T WORK!
