News HP outs low-cost Stream laptops, tablets

Limiting affordable laptops to 1GB memory, sounds oddly familiar.
We haven't learned from the netbooks have we?

 

Wow, I mis-read this one and thought it said Steam tablets!

 

So HP decide to release a laptop with incredibly poor specs (just as we thought finally all computers would be 64 bit), no doubt with atrocious build quality. Nothing new from HP there, they've been busy screwing people over like that for years now. Furthermore the cloud services have only a one year subscription, meaning that after that year (assuming it some how manages not to break within that year) people have to pay or essentially be left a paperweight, considering it's only got 32 GB of most likely unexpandable storage. Doesn't seem like a good deal at any price.
