Moi:

I think Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff are just backstory, fill-ins.  When 
it comes down to it, this whole saga is about Good vs. Evil, Potter 
vs. Voldmort, Potter vs. Malfoy, Gryfinndor vs. Slytherin.  Plus, 
it's all from Harry's point of view, and he really has little contact 
with these houses.  Maybe these two houses will become significant in 
the latter books.
