Netbook Joy: The MSI Wind U123
Netbooks have become the darlings of the laptop industry of late, and this is just another example. They’re small and easy to carry, and are perfect for on the go business needs. MSI is a company specializing in tiny, efficient netbooks, and they released their latest model in the US finally.
The MSI Wind U123 is finally shipping in the US via Amazon. The price: a very reasonable $349.99 with a 6-cell battery in two colors, red or blue.
This mini-laptop comes with a 10.2-inch screen with a solid 1024 x 600 resolution (enough for browsing and e-mailing; not really a heavy gaming system), a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N280 processor (pretty zippy), 1GB RAM, a sizable 160GB hard drive, a webcam, and all the network goodies, as you’d expect: WiFi, Bluetooth and comes with the Windows XP Home OS, fairly standard on netbooks.
A model with a longer lasting 9-cell battery can be pre-ordered for $379.99 as well.
