Does this *really* have a VGA connector, instead of the proprietary connector on the MiniNote 1000? Did I read it correctly?

I'm sold on the 10" 1366x768 screen - forget netbook, this is a damn full-blown mini laptop. Pimp it out with a 512GB SSD, load up XP until Win7 arrives and blow the competition away. If the 2133 was the hit netbook of 2008, the 2140 will be the hit netbook of 2009. HP has not only set the bar, they are the bar.

That's one of the reasons why I bought the original 2133 - because of the screen resolution. My Thinkpad X60t has a 1440x1050 screen (12.1" I think). Can't ever have enough pixels. The 1024x576 is definitely a no-go for me. @Joanna — of course! That’s one of the reasons why I bought the original 2133 – because of the screen resolution.

What surprises me even more is that the HP Mini 1000 gets 600 horizontal lines with the 8,9" but uses the same 10,1" as the new 2140 with 576 lines!
