Simple and straightforward Feb 08, 2009 I've had this Wind 100 for a little over a week and have yet to find a reason not to love the little guy. I added a Microsoft Blue Tooth mouse so as to leave the USB slots clear and that works well. During a presentation - real time video off a wireless hot spot projected on a Proxima no problems. At same time I used a pair of Logitec USB-powered mini speakers to pump up the sound. Worked flawlessly. Overall, the Wind seems to be a great value and with enough muscle to do most all of my daily tasks. ...and it's such a pleasure to be rid of Vista!
The Right Formula Jan 15, 2009 Someone at MSI, really did their homework. I love my wife's Acer 8' , but I love my Wind is even more. The no glare 10' screen and its large keyboard makes it in my opinion the best mini on the market.plenty of hard drive and upgradeable to 2 gigs memory they have all the bases covered. Go MSI...Oh one more thing,it is also fast.
Excelente computadora Dec 01, 2008 Al principio dudaba sobre la funcionalidad de una pantalla de 10 pulgadas. Sin embargo, en cuando empecé a utilizar esta computadora mis dudas desaparecieron. Navegar, escribir un documento, revisar los correos electrónicos, etc., es muy fácil con la MSI WIND. Definitivamente una gran compra. Nada más, recomiendo comprar la versión con batería de 6 celdas, para una mayor duración.
great computer, useless support Nov 26, 2008 It was everything that most of the reviews said it was. Great display, great keyboard, nicely built.. BUT...
1. The company substituted a new touchpad for the one that they shipped to reviewers. With the new touchpad, you can not disable touch to click. Big problem (unless you don't mind surprise inserts, deletes, selects and programs running when you least expect them to).
2. The computer developed a "Windows problem" (error with wireless configuration when pc wakes from standby, causes wireless and wired networks to shut down - necessitating reboot). The on-line support group in Taiwan tries to be helpful.. but they're pretty far away. The local group, the one you can call in California, is clueless. For them, everything merits a Windows re-install. Of course you can't re-install Windows without an external drive. MSI in general seems to have no working relationship with Microsoft. So errors like this will be very hard to correct. Microsoft is trying. But I'm not hopeful at the moment. I'll probably have to send the thing back to MSI and have everything re-installed and updated. After that, I wouldn't be surprised to have the same problem return. Wish I could just get my money back.
Bottom line: Great Computer + Useless Support = No Value.
Great bang for your buck / dollar / Euro / Peso / etc. Nov 11, 2008 I travel for work, and require a personal computer while on the road (to pay bills, manage personal e-mail accounts, surf the web, etc.) The MSI Wind is perfect for what I need - it is small, has sufficient battery life, and is surprisingly capable (I installed Vista on mine, and it runs great ... but note, I installed an extra 1GB of memory, which definitely helps with Vista's performance - not sure what this does to my warranty, but I'm glad I did it) I have installed Macromedia Studio, Quicken 2007, and several other programs and the machine runs fine.
My only gripe is with the size of the 6 cell battery - it protrudes from the back of the case, making the PC a little thicker when closed. This is a trade off for increased battery life, of course, so it is easy to overlook.
The keyboard is great - a bit small, but I am able to type quite fast on it. Wireless capabilities are great, USB ports are sufficient, screen quality is great and the inclusion of a memory card reader was a nice surprise.
If you need an inexpensive, basic PC for travel, or accessing the web from the couch via wireless, this is a great, stable, dependable solution. I highly recommend.
