MSI Wind

MSI Wind

Prices from around $175*

The MSI Wind is another big-selling series of netbooks and yet another direct response to the Asus EeePC – MSI and Asus being archrivals in the lower-budget segment for laptops too. There are two MSI Wind models (though various colours): an 8.9″ screen and a 10.1″ screen (remember what we’ve said elsewhere about 8.9″ screens – you have to really know why you want one that small). Other than that they are essentially the same, with:

  • resolution 1024 x 600 (i.e. wide)
  • 2.5-inch hard drives, usually 160Gb
  • 1Gb of RAM as standard, though you will find models with more.
  • Intel Atom processor

There are a few different models around (u100, u120 etc.) which reflect minor differences in specifications.

Another interesting thing about the MSI Wind is that is has proven popular for installing MacOS on, so you may come across a few “Hackintosh’s” too! Here is a selection of MSI Wind netbooks and accessories on sale on eBay right now:
