I just noticed that I had changed my icons/fonts to extra large, but I had forgotten to change my DPI settings from 96 to 120. Now that I've done this, most things are a lot better. I'm still a bit disappointed with the default font size in Firefox and some other applications, but my eyes don't hurt quite as much as they did. Whoops.

Also, appears that HP has not yet decided whether to go with Intel or ViA low power chip. Guess we will have to wait and see. Again, thanks for all your work.

I am still trying to decide which one will be best for me, but it is beginning to look like an ideal machine would be the 1.2Ghz Mini Note with the 120GB drive with a dual boot XP/Ubuntu load. Any idea on when HP is likely to make XP available without having to go the route of getting Vista with their downgrade option? Also, any hints on which of the new low power chips HP is likely to adopt (and when)? Hopefully you have the contacts to guide us further and do not have to resort to a crystal ball on this one. Keep up the good work. Brad,

I couldn't find that you had looked at that in your articles and am interested to know myself while i weigh my options before i buy.
