Ice, Ice Berry: The HP Mini 210
Posted under: 
Today is the day my wife is excited!
She has been using the laptop equivalent of Ford Pinto for the last few years. It is an old piece of (explitive removed) that is a hand me down of a hand me down.
This computer has, for as long as we have had it, had a problem with the letter “n” on the keyboard. It tends to fall off. This is not a big deal if all you do is get online occassionally to pay a bill or check out the internet.
However, if you are working late at home an a project with a deadline, that “n” just became much more important.
So, we decided to find the perfect computer for her… and I think we succeeded. The good folks at HP have developed a computer that is compact, light and packed full of features. Did I mention that its cute too?
The major selling point (outside of it’s real features) is that you can get it in this pink plaid design. It has everything she needs and is something she is excited about getting too. A real win-win.
The only problem I see is that it really doesn’t seem practical for me to borrow this when I go meet with clients. Wait, I think she would say that it another win for her, too.
