    I saw this on Engadget too. Looks really nice. Shame it won't have dual core CPU though.

    No, I am fine with my EEE, especially since I just got a 16GB Runcore SSD for the Windows 7 Beta. I am good until the fall when the next generation Atom comes out. Then my EEE will be sold and I buy a new one! :D

    I want to see how the new Pineview Atoms with their tailor made chipset do first. Plus, I think the HP is ugly, and the money spent on it will take away from my Westmere laptop funds, and when the Pineview Atoms launch, every netbook will be refreshed/redsigned and I will have lots of choices.
