Summary: Size does matter! and performance too
Comment: Bought for portability, as an independent consultant carrying around my 15.4" Sony notebook has been killing my back. The HP 2133 is light-weighted just fits in my purse, yet the keyboard has a very comfortable size. The sound quality is very good, if only speakers were located somewhere else this would add a couple more inches to the screen, which I'm yet not very comfortable with.
Hard drive and UBS ports (for pendrives) have compensated the lack of CD/DVD drive when it comes to screening movies for my 3 year old son on long road trips.
As usual, Windows Vista must be downgraded to XP for optimal performance.

Summary: A steal!
Comment: For $299, this HP mini notebook is a steal!
I have compared it to the make of EEE and Acer. This is one solid laptop.
After the initial adjustment and wifi setup, mine is working so great. Of course, if you do not want to go into the technicalities of Linux, I suggest you stick to a Windows XP setup.
Oh yes, and it does get warm, as most of the buyers say. But for $299, I got myself a very good bargain!

Summary: **DO NOT GET THIS notebook...SLOW CPU!!!!!!!!!**
Comment: No wonder Amazon lowered the price and it's running on Linux because this netbook came out way before the intel Atom's processor was born. This netbook can't event handle video playback very well. Save your money and get the Acer Aspire One 6 cell or the Samsung nc10 6 cell....you've been warned!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: HP 2133 Support
Comment: I purchased this product for purposes of reviewing the product from a forensic perspective. Interesting, thing happened on the way to doing a standard setup. the wireless on the machine did not work, obviously HP thought that they would have no failures because their staff is incapabable of troubleshooting the product over the phone. they barely recognize it is their product. If are not experienced with hardware and software I do not recommend this product!

Summary: Laptop-alicious
Comment: So I purchased one of the HP 2133 about a month ago when my car broke down and I was forced to be riding public transportation. My commute went from 15 min. to 2hrs. I needed to work on my thesis paper and was going to waste too much time sitting on buses. So I immediately started looking at notebook technology. After looking at a lot of PC reviews of different notebooks, the HP 2133 seemed an affordable, durable, stylish option for just what I was looking for.
The pluses of this pc are this. Base functions of writing, portability, internet connection through wifi, and built in web cam make this computer a completely worth while purchase. Not to mention that it looks awesome as well. Many of the reviewers of this product say that the operating system of Windows that comes preinstalled slows down the functionality of the computer. They reccomend switching over to a Lynx system which doesn't eat up as much memory but for base functions of windows, this works just fine. Not to mention that the switch over is an initial cost of $100.00 plus to get done. For a college student, not the most adequate way to spend $100.00
The minuses are that obviously with a notebook where the memory drive is comparable to that of an iPod, too many open windows and the computer will freeze up. The other draw back is that the screen has a high gloss finish to it which sometimes can be difficult on the eyes only because you can see your reflection when you want to focus on it. The other thing that is somewhat annoying is that the computer starts with the lowest light setting every time you turn it on. Of course when you turn it up, the battery power on the computer does not last as long. Don't get me wrong, you can still pull about a good two hours of work out of this thing before you have to recharge, which makes it perfect for taking notes, a train ride, a bus ride, or even meetings. Other than these few minor annoyances the last thing is that the video playback capability is low. Obviously if you have two videos playing at once they are choppy. But getting this to watch a lot of movies is not really what this was meant for.
All and all, this is a great lightweight notebook which I have not taken off my side since I bought it. It went with me to Amsterdam and everywhere inbetween. If you need something to make good use of commute time or just working on a paper or novel, this is what you need. This is worth the investment and will pay for itself with in a month of having it if not sooner.
