Liliputing: MSI Wind will come in (at least) three colors

  • saab_rider · 1 year ago
    Damn you MSI... Why do you have to make my decision more difficult?

    Black eee 900, or black Wind?

    As a side note, I prefer Asus products over MSI products hands down. Asus mobos for example are highly respected. MSI mobos however are generic cheap products.

    Look at their old logo for god's sake (on the screen of the black Wind)! They were smart enough to update the logo... I never saw the new logo before it appeared on the Wind.

    Mmmmm! Pink netbook!

    Damn, this makes the decision even more difficult. Wait for an Isiah-Spec Mini Note that can (probably) run EVE Online, or get a deliciously fruity MSI Wind?

    (It's a quirk of mine that I like to accessorize with pink, girly looking things despite looking like a lumberjack. Also, I figure a pink laptop is MUCH less likely to be stolen)

    Hahahaha. Korgmeister has figured out the Pink Advantage! I thought I was the only one.

    Of course, if you *really* want to chase potential thieves away, throw on several Hello Kitty stickers too!

    Oh, and saab_rider: Even though the MSI will have two screen sizes, I really expect them to them to be the *same size*. The 9" screen will probably have a larger bezel surrounding it. Otherwise, both will have that better, larger keyboard. Also, Atom CPU.

    Mike, the expected prices for the upcoming Wind Liliputers :) is scary... it's said to reach about $1000??? That makes me less excited about the larger screens (read: 10").

    From what we saw from the first and second generation eees, I'm not sure if MSI will be able to shoehorn a 10" screen inside the body of the Wind with 8.9" screen. Then again, MSI don't have to worry about the location of the speakers as Asus did, since MSI placed the speakers at the bottom from day one.
