<br>I dropped into PC World today as I was passing and they are selling the HP Mininote 2133 for £200 and it seems a few other places are too as HP are dropping the 2133 in favour of an Atom based Mininote 1000s. It's a Via C7-M processor at 1.2GHz (marginally less speedy than 1.6GHz Atom, remember clock speed isn't everything), 1200x768 resolution which is more than any other netbook, 1GB RAM, 120GB hard disk, wireless B/G, bluetooth 2.0 and webcam running the slightly dated SUSE 10.1.<br>

<div>I was looking at this machine myself. Can it really do 1200x768? The one I looked at in PC World was set to 800x600 but I guess it could have been badly configured. </div>

</blockquote><div><br>yes it does 1200 by 760 +/- 10px on mine.<br><br>The SUSE 10.1 in PCWorld is pretty crap.<br><br>Also the PC World root password is: pcw<br><br>CE<br> </div></div><br>
