HP is one of the most trusted brands when it comes to desktops, laptops and notebooks. Every product from HP is much awaited, mainly due to its durability and performance. This time also, HP has not disappointed us. With the release of HP Mini 1000, HP has even gone one step far than its other products in the notebook series. The best feature that has been acclaimed worldwide is its “keyboard”. The other features that make the HP Mini 1000 the best in its category are the compact and the sleek design, not to mention the bright screen and the stylish and svelte case. The netbook shown above is the HP MINI 1000 Vivienne Tam edition.
The HP Mini 1000 specifications are almost the same as any other notebook in this category, yet these are what make it distinguished and slightly apart from other. The Intel Atom 1.6 GHz processor with the 60 GB 4200 RPM PATA hard drive. 1 GB of DDR2 RAM which has with Windows Home operating system installed in it. A 10.2” WSVGA LED backlit monitor with 1024X600 resolution. Also included are Ethernet 10/100 with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It weighs a total of only 3 lbs with the AC adapter, one of the lightest notebooks ever invented.
The product has an Imprint finish and color coordinated design in addition to the sleek and the smooth body. The thickness of the body has been reduced because of the use of a thin proprietary connection. HP has also taken the initiative to change the battery from the old lithium ion cylindrical pack to a lithium polymer battery. The other modification include the removal of ExpressCard slot, the integration of the microphone and headphone jack, the removal of the number of external connections and also, the hiding of the LAN connector under a soft rubber cover.
The most attractive and the customer appreciation winning feature is the upgrade systems of this HP Mini 1000. When it comes to upgrade the notebook at home, there are some notebooks that make the process difficult but there are note books that make the process easy. However, it’s something very different with HP Mini 1000. The upgrade of this HP product is ridiculously easy. The consumer can do the upgrade at home in a very easy manner. Coming to the display, the BrightView Infinity panel, which works on the 10.2” backlit LCD provides a very good color and contrast. The description of HP Mini 1000 remains incomplete without the proper defining of its keyboard. The keyboard has been the best among all the other notebooks. The key size and shape are just like the desktop keyboard, so you get full control over the keys, without any experience of crams or insufficient space.
We see that HP Mini 1000 is, by far, the best notebook to be bought. And with the HP brand added to it, it is definitely worth every penny.
