Now if they'd go back to the wonderful keyboard they had on their first attempt at a netbook (The 2133 MiniNote - everything except the keyboard and screen were absolute trash, and the screen only gets by because they fit 1280x800 pixels in 9" diagonal,) instead of that chicklet "hey Apple does it, it must be better" keyboard, this would look just right.

This is a mistake in the article. The HP press release uses the standard AMD wording for the E-series APUs - "discrete-class graphics", i.e. the integrated HD6320 DX11 GPU. There is no discrete GPU.
Will be interesting to see benchmarks comparing the AMD and Intel versions of this item - particularly considering the price delta.
