The reviewer from Techware Labs indicates the performance is
lacking. What’s your experience with performance, Jeff.
“This is the end of my first week with the HP 2133 and I
must say that my final conclusion is that at the end of the day functionality
wins over asthetics. While I simply adore the looks and design of the HP 2133,
the raw performance leaves me wanting. The higher res screen has been packed
into a smaller 8.9 inch frame which in the end does lead to more difficult
reading and a worse experience. This of course could be easily corrected by
keeping the design of the HP 2133 the same and integrating a larger 10 inch
screen. The side mounted speakers could be moved to the bottom of the unit. HP
obviously spent some serious time and effort on the asthetics and design of the
2133 and it shows, but they seemed to rush to market and as such selected VIA
to power the insides, which may not have been the best choice. The upcoming VIA
nano shows some excellent promise over the Intel Atom but ETA's put it way out.
It may have been wiser to integrate the Intel Atom into the HP 2133 chassis as
this would have been a winning combination.”
