msi wind

hi i noticed that you posted this video quite a long time ago but i still hope you get to read this … i have the asus eee pc notebook right now but iam planning to sell it and buy the msi wind U100 instead… will it be a good choice?? is the msi wind better?

msi wind

yes

msi wind

is this better then the acer one?

msi wind

im not a fan of mini laptops

MSI ftw. The keyboard on the EEE was a deal breaker. And all the other netbooks have glossy screens that burn your retinas. MSI is easiest to type and read on for the size.

I use mine to take notes in class so it travels with me, gets stuffed into my backpack with all my textbooks. Sometimes REEEALLY stuffed, at least on Tues and Thurs. I’ve not had one problem and I’ve never thought twice about it. Asus might be more solid but the Wind isn’t a fragile little toy. The amount of times I’ve almost knocked it off my desk, then slammed my hand down on it to keep it from falling, that says to me it’s not fragile at all. Don’t know if yours is defective but mine is fine.

msi wind

Well, mine does. I feel I can’t carry this inside my backpack, because I feel that the screen will not stand any banging around. It just feel too fragile.
Sure it’ll last if you don’t expose it to any stresses, but what’s the point of having a netbook then.
My other one, an Asus 701 is far more rugged, but I don’t like it because of the puny screen and crappy keyboard.

msi wind

Either you’re lying, exxagerating, or you got a defective model. Because mine doesn’t do any of that and I’ve never heard it from others who have the Wind. I’m holding mine right this minute and NONE of what your saying shows. Sorry. The laptop I’m using right now is showing a lot more bending and warping than the Wind and it’s lasted for 3-4 years now.

msi wind

You’re wrong. I can clearly see the stresses in the lcd display when moving the lid. I don’t know if that will shorten the life span of the lcd because it might break prematurely, but it sure looks and feels very fragile. The netbook overal feels all right (not great) sturdy wise, but the lcd screen itself on the inside does not. It should have been shielded from the various bending motions and stresses much better.

msi wind

Ignore this person. There was someone else on another review saying the same crap and it is just that, crap. The screen does not bend, all the rest of that is just nonsense.

msi wind

Because the majority of people use XP and don’t want t relearn an operating system.

msi wind

It’s a lot cheaper now, yay. I got mine for $290 on ebay (with cashback), but you can find it for around $350-400 in many places.

msi wind

Agreed, I don’t really think there’s too much difference between what comes with all the computers. They all suck.

msi wind

You have to get an external drive. Netbooks don’t come with optical drives.

msi wind

For me, with wi-fi and backlight turned down about halfway, I can get 4.5 hours or so on it. I haven’t really tried it without wifi or with backlight all the way down, but it’ll be more for sure.

msi wind

Now this is a good review for the Wind. Personally, though, I really don’t have a problem with the one bar click, doesn’t bother me. But maybe that’s just me.

msi wind

For the lulz

“Got milk?”
