HP Mini 1000
Editors' rating: 4
The good: Best Netbook keyboard we've seen; thinner and lighter than HP's previous Netbook; ditches slow Via processor for faster Intel Atom.
The bad: Limited expansion options; overly glossy screen; needless proprietary external drive connection.
The bottom line: HP may have arrived late to the consumer Netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.
