| The notebook tends to run a little hot and noisy when just running a browser,

| travelling companion rather than workhorse. Inflicting Microsoft's bloatware 
| Vista Business on the Mini-Note seems cruel but, thankfully, HP intends to 
| offer the option of Vista Home Basic, FreeDOS or SuSE Linux Enterprise 
| desktop.

FreeDOS. So Microsoft needn't be paid after all.
