Been using my HP Mini 2140 for a month already with Win XP SP3, 2GB RAM, Office 2007 and Norton Internet Security 2009. I've also integrated the Norton password management with my IE7 browser, so far my experience with netbook has been excellent, no lag, hang or whatsoever.

Did the boot-up benchmark also and yes, the boot time range is from 50sec to 1 min. Mine booted up at average 58sec with the above configuration. Don't mind the boot-up time as I believe security protection is much more important and in my opinion NIS 2009 is the leanest Norton product suite to date (I don't work with Norton - hahaha). Besides, I seldom shutdown the netbook; always use the hibernate function which cuts the boot time almost half at 31sec.

bro..how's the 3 cell battery perfomance?

Depending on the usage, so far I've been getting an average of 2hour 50mins when doing work (heavy Powerpoints & Word files + browsing). Watching DiVx movies gets around 2hours 30mins on average. *Figures are my approximate estimation, didn't really clock it. Hmm.. perhaps we should do it huh, for the record

So how much do we need to add for 6cells batt?

add approximately RM360 for another 6 cell battery

360 ok man not that expensive.. u get an extra 6cells... good buy...

RM1699 + 360 = 2059 + 250 (external drive) = RM2419

that's what i'm thinking to get 2140 or DV-2 since dv2 is rm2399

1. 10" VS 12"
2. 1.19 kg (should be higher if using 6cell batt) VS 1.7kg
3. standard onboard display VS HD3410
4. 1 gb ram VS 4gb

both got almost same thickness

good maths u have there.. haha how often do u use your optical drive? if yes then i suggest u get dv2 loh.. else 2140 still more portable than dv2 even if you bring 2 batts together with you n u get many hours on it without wall plug...

the optical drive for DV2 is external..so no need to bring along with us..for the mobility i think 2140 win but for mobile+perfomance DV rocks

how much they sell the 6 cell battery if we purchase alone?still 360 or more than that?

nah i dont know the price. but given by nothingz approx. rm360 (could be less) then its worth buying..

i think i will consider the Linux Ambank promo 1299
