Figures. Oh well, what can you do? I don't want Windows anyway, so maybe I'll just pull mine apart and put in a 64 GB SSD, once I get Ubuntu running happily on it...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[demon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 11:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[Excellent news.

(And stopped marketing their patterns like some kind of revolution in design). They've been sensible enough to _not_ have that shiny plastic on the inside (the people who design their Pavilion notebooks could learn a lot), but having it on the outside just makes scratches and fingerprints plainly obvious and is really not that attractive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mr. Picklesworth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 12:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed. I can't even figure out what kind of pattern is on the outside of the 311. If you look closely, it appears to be ass stubble. I'd rather it just be plain. (Oh but I'm so buying one of these uprated ones anyway.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tump]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 1:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[Woooot!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[audiqpimp]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 12:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[thanks for the info !!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Redmunt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 1:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[why is Hp so stingy at least the atom 330 and 2 gigs of ram ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rajshaun]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 3:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[Based on HP's 9/15 press release, the Windows 7 model should be available for order on 10/18.

I was _this_ close to buying a 311 this morning, but now I feel like waiting.  I don't really care about Windows 7 as I have an MSDN subscription, but the full blown ION makes me want to wait.  Which would be a better buy: current model, or new model with full ION and W7 premium?  I wanted to stay under $500, which with the N280, N wireless and Bluetooth was about what I was going to have to pay.<br><br>Problem seems that something new is always going to be right around the corner.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 12th 2009 8:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP Mini 311 set for spec bump, Windows 7 Professional]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/hp-mini-311-set-for-spec-bump-windows-7-professional/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually, the ION and ION LE are by all accounts the same silicon, just the ION LE isn't able to do DX10 so that it could be used in devices meeting Microsoft's definition of a netbook, so they could sell them with XP.
