HP Mini 110 Buying Guide

As the updated edition to a solid line of first-generation netbooks, the HP Mini 110 sports the brand new Intel Pinetrail Atom processors, giving a slight boost to performance and a definite boost to battery life (expect up to a whooping 9.5 hours of battery life on light usage scenarios).

You can find the Intel GMA 3150 in the machine, giving you a strange ability to play some pre-2007 games on this netbook --- World of Warcraft will even run at low resolution without too much fuss, but make sure settings are on low. You'll find the standard webcam with integrated microphone, and the latest wireless-N adapter card.

With a 93% full-size textured keyboard, the typing experience is decent but not superb, those with small fingers will generally find no issues with the keyboard. We recommend keeping the operating system at Windows XP Home (with Service Pack 3) to ensure a snappier performance, and if you do opt for Windows 7 starter edition (32-bit), we recommend at least 2GB of RAM. In fact, the more the better. If there is a HP Mini 110 coupon available, you will see it shown in the deal listing above.
