We ranked the HP Mini-Note 2140 as number two on our list of Top 5 Netbooks of 2009. Targeted for the business user who prefers the advantages of a subnotebook, the Mini-Note 2140 won us over with its ingenious metal alloy chassis made of a combination of aluminum and magnesium that gives it extra rigidity and the ability to withstand the regular abuse that comes with mobile computing. It does have features that have become standard fare with netbooks – such as the Intel Atom 270 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 160 GB of disk space and a 10.1-inch display.
The extras that caught our attention were the spill-resistant and near-full-sized keyboard and the accelerometer feature which shuts of the hard drive during a fall to prevent damage. There’s also an ExpressCard slot that offers expansion possibilities usually found north of standard netbook fares, and an 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity.
The 10-inch screen on the Mini-Note 2140 is usually met with mixed reactions. Some say it is nice and large but there are those who would complain about its lack of resolution – only 1024 x 576; which requires more frequent use of the touchpad as not everything is immediately displayed on screen as they normally would in a larger screen.
