NEWS.COM has a story on HP (hp? ;) combining e-Vectras and e-Brios
into e-PCs.  (It seems using an 'e-' prefix doesn't make something
an automatic hit.)

The part the drives me crazy is:

  "HP's e-Vectra, for instance, comes in a sealed case; memory can't
   be added.  The only part that can be changed with ease is the
   hard drive, and that accommodation was made only because the
   hard drive breaks down more than other components, HP executives
   said earlier this year."

MEMORY cannot be added???  In today's PC market, that's ludicrous.
This definitely is not your father's (e-)Vectra.

The full story is at:
