Not much of a competitor

the whole appeal of these mini PCs is price, they were supposed to appeal to budget users.
HP's offering, if you include VAT, works out £350, what's the appeal when you can get a fully featured laptop, with Windows Vista for £300?
The Eee on the other hand costs just £219 and is even better looking! so what is it that HP think will make their machine competitive?
