Customer Review: Excellent netbook when upgraded w 2gb and Windows 7
Hi All.
So we are quite a large family with 3 kids that all want their own laptops. What to do? Netbooks are my answer. I have already purchased and reviewed a Lenovo S10 with Windows 7 and now I bought this unit and upgraded it to 2gb ram with Windows 7.

You may be wondering if I loved the S10 then why did I try the HP…simple…I bought it at a liquidation sale and $$$ were the only thing on my mind. I got it for less then $400 with the 2gb upgrade.

I must say that I am equally impressed with this laptop. The 2gb upgrade was a breeze and installing windows 7 from a USB stick was also very very easy. Please google the windows 7 via usb stick method, it will save you from having to buy a dvd/cd drive and it works perfectly via a 4gb Sandisk Cruzer.

The box comes with the laptop, the battery, and ac-adapter. The machine comes with 1gb RAM and only has 1 slot…so if you upgrade to a 2gb SO-DIMM then you are going to lose the 1gb it includes..it gets put on the side - just in case. :-)

You may be wondering why I chose a beta operating system. Well, my opinion is that XP is dated, Vista is a Beast, and Windows 7 is a breath of fresh air. Yes Windows 7 is a BETA….and wont be released any time soon (or so they say)…but it has great power management features that work perfectly on a netbook. This machine scored a whopping 3.5 out of 5.5 on the ratings panel..and I believe the low score is due to the Atom processor being 1.6. The memory, hard drive, video, etc was all around the 5 mark…. For those that dont know…windows vista and windows 7 have a hardware rating that they give to all machines….

This particular unit is for my 11 year old son in 6th grade. He wants something that he can play online games with, do homework with, and check the schools website for study guides etc…. Simple stuff.

I have loaded Office 2007 on the system and it works without a flaw. Speed is not an issue and sometimes I wonder if it is necessary to spend thousands of dollars on a high powered machine like I have done with my Thinkpad… Yes the screen is 10″…that is my only issue thus far..but you can get used to it, for once you pick this thing up and say “MAN this is LITE….” :-) We have used Microsoft Word and Excel regularly no issues.

Wireless performance is perfect…no dropouts and no issues getting connected.

Windows 7 found all of the drivers for this laptop, which I must say is amazing….and really helpful. No fiddling around with trying to find latest and greatest drivers…it just works. Windows 7 also has great power savings features for these machines….ie the hibernation which I have never had 100% success with….well 7 makes it work. On a netbook when you close the lid the machine hibernates…press the power and it resumes to where you left off.

I can keep going on and on…..

Others have complained about some proprietary HP stuff…but I have one question to all that buy a Netbook…..what are you trying to achieve?
If you need a laptop that can handle all basic and some advanced functions and you dont care about having a plethora of connections (ie. more then 2 usb ports) then this machine is for you. If you need a lot of connectors and bells and whistles…buy a full size machine.

The only gripe I have..and its not major…is that the headphone and microphone are on the same jack…..which is easily overcome buy using a usb based headset…

Thats it….I hope you like my review.

Customer Review: great but with a few reservations
I picked this up about a week ago from Best Buy. I have the identical unit except I have the 16 gig SSD drive with the 1 gig RAM.It is the HP 1030NR model if you’re interested. 16 gigs isn’t a lot of space but its good for programs, games, etc. You just probably won’t put on your music collection or photo collection but it will hold a lot of other things.
The 10.2″ infinity screen is beautiful. It is a fingerprint magnet though. The battery at full brightness lasts only about 2 hours 10 minutes while surfing and the unit take THREE hours to recharge!
The upside to this computer is that it was only $399. It came with a 2 gig memory stick that fits flush with the unit for more storage.
The keyboard is the best. The unit is very thin. The webcam is super dark. You need a bright light by you to even see anything. Luckily I never use a webcam.
The design beats the acer aspire one hands down(which I also own and love). If you are getting a netbook this is a great design and looks more expensive than any netbook on the market.
