HP Mini 5102
$400.00
Released February, 2010
The Pros:Option for enhanced 720p capable 1366 x 768px display resolution. 10 hours of battery life for all day computing. Improved current generation N450 and GMA 3150 contribute to slightly lower temperatures and better performance, better battery life.
The Cons:No faster than any other "Pine Trail" based netbook - identical internal components. High price for a netbook, fairly costly for upgrades. No linux-only option (increases price).
The HP Mini 5102 is the most expensive of the 2010 line of HP Minis. It is designed with maximum specs and options, including a Atom N450 processor and Broadcom HD video acceleration. It comes with a ten inch WSVGA or WXGA multi-touch screen and has a choice of a four-cell or six-cell battery.

It has the largest variety of operating systems compared to other HP Minis, including FreeDOS, SUSE Linux, Windows XP, Windows 7 Starter and Home Premium. Unlike the other minis, the HP Mini 5102 comes with an optional handle to make it very easy to tote around. The design and appearance of the laptop is sleek and simple, missing all the unnecessary bells and whistles that other laptops have. The keyboard is 95% of a full sized keyboard.
