The HP Mini 2140 is the latest entry in Hewlett-Packard's 2100 series of netbooks. The Mini 2140 has a fairly large keyboard (92% the size of a full-size QWERTY keyboard) with wide, flat buttons. The mouse configuration is same. Navigating and editing documents more difficult because the right and left mouse buttons flank the mousing surface .The mouse buttons on the 2140 are rubberized and rise above the surface, improving the mouse's manageability. The 2140 has a few things that are in common with the Mini 1000--and with the rest of the netbook market. The base-level,version of the 2140 comes with Intel's Atom 1.6-GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive that spins at 5400 rpm, a three-cell battery, and Windows XP.
HP Mini 2140 has all the right moves looks-wise, it stumbled a little in WorldBench 6. The metallic mini-note kept running into issues with Photoshop and as a result of only netted a score of 26. The only other netbook that's scored as low was the equally poor-performing Dell Inspiron Mini 9. These netbooks score lower due to the fact that their odd-sized screens can't run some of our benchmark programs.The unit's rugged frame and aluminum lid make it a little on the meaty side. It weighs 2.6 pounds with the three-cell battery in place, compared to the Mini 1000's 2.25 pounds; but the Mini 2140's remain notably svelte, at 1.05 by 10.3 by 6.5 inches. The metal alloy hinges are recessed, for durability. And both the spill-resistant keyboard and the 3D DriveGuard that parks the hard-drive head during a sudden movement enhance this model's ruggedness for the road.
The 2140 supports 802.11n, and Bluetooth 2.0 is optional. HP claims that the netbook can recharge up to 90 percent of capacity in about 90 minutes.
It's a business-class machine, the Mini 2140 puts on a reasonable audio show. Its speakers, parked in the hinge between the display and the keyboard, performs on the same scale as the Mini 1000
The machine has a few handy ports such as an SDHC flash card reader, VGA-out, an ethernet jack and two USB ports. But the USB ports are located on either side of the device, creating a potential problem if you want to plug in an external hard drive that requires a spare USB port to power the device. This issue isn't unique to the 2140, but it is something to keep in mind if you're a big-time data jockey.
