Pretty amazing, this is the best mini notebook ive seen yet. The others were a great deal, but disappointing because of the small hdd space. I mean, people are going to be putting massive amounts of media, including music, and movies, etc...., why would you sell it with a measly 4gb SSD? amazingly retarded, but this beast has 160GB, things are heating up in this market, i might make my mini computer move on one of the HP designs. GO HP!
