Summary Review of HP 2133 Mini-Note Laptop

The good:

* Inexpensive
* Solid construction
* Stylish design belies its budget price
* Nearly full-size keyboard

The bad:

* Weak performance
* Unimpressive battery life
* Tiny touchpad
* Misses out on new Intel Atom CPUs

The bottomline:

Despite an underpowered CPU, the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC offers the best balance of small size, comfort, and functionality we’ve seen in a mini-notebook, making it fast a favourite for on-the-go use.
