MSI Wind (U100) Unboxing
sunetos asked:
One of the lucky few to get an MSI Wind today, so I 'm presenting Unboxing complete until the end of booting to Windows. I had a bit of fun getting this thing in Fry 's, where I had to convince their employees that they had a really in action. Once brought out all wanted one! Was lucky enough to get it because the batch is getting sent back to MSI for no reason given.

Speaking of those CDs; my GF bought a U100 from Wal Mart up in Canada and only got the drivers CD. She called up MSI and was told both the driver and XP recovery discs are blank media and that the user burns their own copies on to them. Is that true?
msi wind
well for this one u can overclock to 2 gigs speed! and u can also play some games, you can search games that are playable on these with google (MSI Wind Games) and its ultraportable.
msi wind
haha i find it funny they give u cds lmao

I suppose…
In all honesty, I don’t know how to refute that.

A netbook is a very small version of a latop, that uses a small, power efficient CPu such as the Intel Atom. They currently don’t have discrete graphic cards, only integrated, and are meant for things like browsing the internet, listrening to music, doing text work etc..
They aren’t laptops, because they are small, more power efficient, and can’t do things like play games or power high power apps.

netbooks hurt my brain
theyre just so unusable in every way
but maybe theres a good use for them that i dont know about
msi wind
A netbook is a laptop.
So it’s both.
msi wind
yes
msi wind
you kept referring to the MSI wind as a lap top… but it’s a net book?
which is it? i’m a bit confused… and i looked at the specs and it can go up to 160GB with a six cell battery… this look pretty promising…. but i’m still comparing…
msi wind
has this got a WI-FI?
msi wind
I think it’s the GMA 950, actually. At least, that’s what it says on the msi website.
msi wind
it does’t, i called msi and they said that if u add more ram, it doesn’t void the warranty :p
msi wind
theyre all generally the same, 10.2 inch screen. 1.6 Atom n270 CPU, intel GMA 945 video chipset, and the main diference between them is the hard drive sizes, and battery sizes (3,or 6 cell)
msi wind
theres so many models, which one is this?
msi wind
i dont no y but i prefer the asus eeepc 900
msi wind
its called an external drive :\
msi wind
bad….you want a smaller screen and a smaller hard drive, and a bad keyboard go for it!
msi wind
DVD’s and no DVD-drive, they must be some kind of morons.
msi wind
mine is amazing. I’m considering selling it to buy the new Dell Inspiron Mini 9. Is that a good idea or bad?
msi wind
im gettin this one today mabes
msi wind
but it voids the warranty.
