Coffee break- Mac-ing in the Starbucks on the HP
No question that a Mac made by HP that fits in my tiny gear bag is just too cool for words. I only have a 17" MacBook Pro and while I occasionally bring it to the local SBUX it's not something I carry around too much. It is so bloomin' cool to be able to bring the 8.9" HP Mini-Note and still work with the Mac OS at the SBUX. Severiously.
Have you tried to install OSX on the mini-note yet rather than using logmein?

What exactly does the mac software let you do that XP wont? Sounds like you are just blogging and browsing, not anything mac has any advantage on in my opinion.

Do tell if any of the HP employees has to be taken out on a stretcher after watching your screen.

Why don't you just drop the pretense and title things like this "Another Post To Drive Mike Cane Crazy"?!!?

Mike, believe it or not driving you crazy is only my secondary objective with these posts.

bill, OS X is just more fun than Windows. Seriously, I do things like work with my photo collection in iPhoto and the like.

This would be a highly misleading post if one did not know that you were just doing the remote desktop thing.

Why don't you try using the best OS ever? Yes, I'm talking about Windows 2000! What a year that was.

How hard would it be to get OSx86 running on the 2133 when it has already been run on the Via C7-M on the OQO 2?

JK, I follow your blog on a daily basis for a technology manufacturer. On s.technorati.com for some reason just the photo's from your post are the only items that come up...ie the photos and not the text. I am not sure what is causing this but you may want to look into it....and it's making my job harder...only kidding.
