I’m already using the gadget and loving it. For someone who digs into the net as much as I do without needing too much of the techno-sophistication but values simplicity and neat design, HP 1000 is just perfect! :)

(Btw, I’ve used the old HP-compact, and still use it once in a while. I’ve used a lot of HP products and have been satisfied with its durability.)

HP’s second-generation foray into the mini-laptop space, also known as netbooks–the HP Mini 1000–has a couple of advantages over its predecessor (the HP 2133, which we reviewed back in early April). Gone is the Via C-7M processor; gone, too, is the pipe dream that any current netbook could handle Windows Vista (the Mini 1000 runs Windows XP). The Mini 1000 that we received for testing packs Intel’s 1.6-GHz Atom processor; 1GB of RAM; a 4200-rpm, 60GB PATA hard disk; and Windows XP. Translation: It falls in place with the rest of the current mini-notebook pack.
But its standard 3-cell battery is absolutely not enough for a lot of people both in the work and in the life. For this sense, any possibility to enlarge the capacity of the laptop battery?
I strongly suggest that order an extended hp mini laptop battery to enlarge the working time in: http://www.hunt360.net/hp-mini-1000.htm.
This website provides one year warranty, 30 days money back and shipping over the world!
What is more, the price is acceptable.

BestBuy has reduced the price of the 1030 HP Mini to $350 (from $400) … I’m really enjoying my Mini, and think the 1030 was a good buy at $400 (which is what I paid) and a better buy at the new price. The LogiTech “nano” laptop mouse (with its almost hidden USB receiver) is a great plus; and, like an earlier poster, I have a USB to VGA converter that works very well (mine is a eVGA model).

I have a mini 1030NR and was trying to figure how I could connect an LCD projector or external monitor because I was not been able to find an adapter for the connector that is built into the mini. I recently purchased usb to vga adapter for $50 online and it works. The adapter I purchased is from StarTech.com part #USB2VGAE for anyone who is interested.

Due to licensing restriction, netbook manufacturers can only put 1GB maximum on their products. However, I know for the facts that Dell Mini 9, HP Mini, Lenovo S10, all can take a single 2GB SODIMM.

It does not come with an optical Drive. You may purchase one seperately (they’re very affordable and I’d recommend a 3rd party drive if you want to save), or you can use another computer with an optical drive and save the install files onto a USB thumb drive.

I was wondering if this laptop came with an optical drive. If not, how can I install programs that use a CD?

I have a Mini 1030 (from Best Buy: $400); it comes with 1GB RAM. Since my ultimate OS will likely be Windows 7 (I’ve heard of at least one guy who has installed a pre-Beta version), I’d like to upgrade the RAM … to 4GB.

Can this be done? Will the BIO support it?
