This new Ubuntu-based offering from HP looks very interesting.
However, based on what an HP spokesperson recently told a reporter (see ZDNet article), HP won't be offering Linux versions of its Mini 1000 netbook in the UK and other European markets (only a Windows XP version will be available). Shame. According to the ZDNet piece, HP made the decision about a month ago, but they declined to comment on the reason.
:-(
