HP held a bloggers’ meet-up today to launch their latest in the range of tiny, portable and actually useful laptops: HP Mini. Just for the record, it was more like a presentation for the bloggers.

First of all, it was a very unprofessional and poor management on the behalf of the people who were responsible for organizing the whole event. I was told that it is going to begin at 3:00 PM on 10th December, 2009 in the Kashmir Hall of Pearl Continental. I got there a couple of minutes late and Kashmir Hall was filled with old people standing around in groups, smoking. I was kind of dumbfounded and stood staring at all those people. Then as I regained consciousness, I decided to go check out the screen which displays all the events. The meet-up was shifted to Shalimar Hall now and then when I met the guy who was arranging it all (Khalid), mentioned until yesterday was supposed to be in Holiday Inn.
