1. design: definitely droolworthy. good keyboard too

2. performance: dissappointing for details check out its review by "notebook review". i believe the highest end 1.6Ghz Via proccy is beaten by the EeePc Cpu :ROFL:

Ridiculous pricing and typical of HP. Looks like a good product though build-wise. Pity VIA's processors can't give good performance.
