Just love the look of this netbook, the outer body colour is so cool
Do you think it is wise to get a HP Mini 210 or should I get an AsusEE?
Netzwerk: The specs are almost identical of the Asus 1005hp and HP Mini 210-1012sa so the choice is entirely yours. I have closely checked both machines, I would personally go for the HP Mini as it feels much better in terms of build and design.

Found this thread that might help http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7desktop/thread/b7c346c1-ee02-406a-970e-ed5e1d40b955
I recently purchased this lap. This lap top is phenominal for the price (£249 from PC World on-line in the sale – sold out in days). Impressed by the design of the lap top (classy burgandy lid), great graphics on the screen for the size, the key board feels smooth and the mouse has nice feel and action (returned Dell 1011 for this reason), the battery life of 8 hours plus as claimed seems to be correct. I had no idea what HP Quickweb was; but it is really useful when on the move. The first time I have used Windows 7 (this has a Starter Version) and it runs well on this machine with Atom N450 processor and 1 Gig of Ram. I might treat this Net Book to 2 Gig of Ram in the future to see if it makes any difference though to be honest I would say the 1 Gig seems adequate. To upgrade to 2 Gig is easy to do and there is a video how to do this on YouTube however you have to buy a 2 Gig Ram as there is only one slot and your existing 1 Gig will be redundant.
