I’m sitting in Starbucks and one of my buddies is on the phone right now ordering an HP Mini from HP. He’s been enamored of them since seeing the one I have been using here and today he is pushing the button. Interestingly, he wants HP to preinstall Microsoft Office which they are going to do and since he’s buying Office with the Mini he gets a free GB of memory. The rep told him that there are two memory slots on the Mini and that he gets an extra GB of memory to augment the 2 GB in the unit he’s ordering. I don’t know if that sounds right to me, is there even room in there for two slots? In any event he’s stoked to be buying a Mini and admits the relatively low price is why he’s "impulse buying" one.
