[News] H-P's GNU/Ballnux Laptops Targetted at Schools

HP unveils small laptop for schoolkids

,----[ Quote ]
| HP's foray comes in the form of a new computer called a "Mini-Note" that 
| weighs less than 3 pounds with a screen that measures 8.9 inches diagonally. 
| The machines start at under $500 for a Linux-based model. Prices go up for 
| Windows Vista models with faster processors.

Microsoft still gets for these because it's Ballnux, not Linux.

| investment for students, mobile professionals, and anyone else looking for an 
| affordable, highly portable computer.

HP strikes chord with Mini-Note PC

,----[ Quote ]
| Like the three aforementioned machines, the Mini-Note is not aimed at the 
| mass market. It starts on the low end at $499 for the Linux, SSD version, but 
| a fully configured device with Vista can top out at $1,200.
