HP mini-Q nettop with dual-core Atom 330 CPU
SlashGear —
HP should be ashamed of themselves: this poor model (who isn’t really dressed appropriately, considering it’s almost December) is so excited by the new HP mini-Q nettop that she’s entirely failed to notice the ominous red sponge-man creeping up behind her. I’m no lawyer but that’s a sexual misconduct lawsuit just waiting to happen. Still, you can sort of see why she’s happy: the mini-Q 2030 uses Intel’s dual-core Atom 330 processor together with 2GB of DDR2 RAM, a 160GB 7,200rpm SATA hard-drive and a dual-layer DVD burner.
If the Vista-based 2030 is a little to speedy for you (what, really?) there’s always the mini-Q 2020 which uses a 1.6GHz single-core Atom ...

HP is releasing its first nettops, the Atom-powered Compaq Presario 2030 and 2020 Mini-Q PCs. The 2030 is a dual-core system operating at 1.6GHz and featuring a 160GB hard disk and 2GB of memory. The computer runs Windows Vista and comes with a Blu-ray drive, a luxurious feature for a system that's supposed to be a nettop. For about $100 less, the 2020 only runs a single-core Atom, goes with XP instead of Vista, and lowers installed RAM to 1GB. Both systems include four USB ports and the basic assortment of cable hook-ups, but only offer VGA analog video output. That could potentially be a problem for Blu-ray viewing, as this output doesn't support the HDCP encryption standard Blu-ray titles can demand be present for playback. The ...

For about $100 less, the 2020 only runs a single-core Atom, goes with XP instead of Vista, and lowers installed RAM to 1GB. Both systems include four USB ports and the basic assortment of cable hook-ups, but only offer VGA analog video output. That could potentially be a problem for viewing protected content, as this output doesn't support the HDCP encryption standard. The pair of HP systems look a lot like the MSI Wind Neton spec-wise, but ...
