HP has always maintained two lines of netbooks, one for ordinary users and one for professionals. At CES 2010, the house has just announced the Mini 5102, successor to the Mini 5101, the 10-inch targeted at companies and institutions.

The new HP Mini 5102 looks similar to the previous model (allumunio and magnesium frame, keyboard, an island of 95% of a full-size and thickness of less than 2 cm) but has a technical definitely renewed. Mount the new Intel platform Pine Trail (Atom N450 or N470), up to 2GB of RAM, HDD 7,200 rpm (160/250/320Gb) or SSD (80/128Gb), WiFi N and Bluetooth.
