A short while ago, someone did a revisit of HPC devices on one of the technology sites
(he posts here once in a while too
). On that site, someone else left the comment we get a lot: if it only runs XP. Of course I responded saying there are indeed XP machines like HPCs physically, but not functionally. Specifically I mentioned the Picturebook series and Lifebook P1000 series.
Then I came across a small comment in this eBay item description of a PictureBook:

Not much, and the comment could be bias. Since then I have wondered if someone actually did a direct comparison between the MobilePro and the Picturebook, because they are indeed similar in shapes and sizes. But I haven't found any yet.
Has anyone had experience owning both of these? I would really like to hear about it.
