Quick, light, real laptop:
I have used my Wind MSI for over two months now, and I want to share how happy I am about it. Specifically, two friends of mine have bought the basic ACER AspireOne at some 80$-100$ less, and I've had the occasion to compare the two. At the beginning I thought the AspireOne would have been a better buy, but now I know I was right in choosing the Wind. Comparing MSI Wind to ACER AspireOne, I prefer the MSI Wind because:
- it is the same weight (1kg), even if 1'' larger in width/length... more info
MSI WIND:
I thought this Item was perfect for what it is. A netbook. Small and lightweight for travel. The only problem I had was the right side of the space bar did not work.
exceptional little device:
I bought this based on product reviews. I'd never heard of MSI before. I just knew I needed something light, reliable, and didn't want to learn a new operating system. This little computer does everything I need in a laptop. It's fast, lightweight, and I carry it with me everywhere. The only drawback is the short battery life of the 3 cell. Otherwise, plenty of bang for the buck.
Nice little machine terrible touch pad:
Overall this is a nice little machine for the price. Unfortunately I learned after purchasing that MSI discontinued the Synaptic touch pad and is now shipping with the inferior and no doubt cheaper Sentelic touch pad which does not include the finger sliding scroll feature. This is the worst touch pad I have ever used and frankly I would not have purchased the system had I known of the swap beforehand.
