MSI Wind review

Reviews The curved corners and pearlescent white finish give it a very contemporary look and although the MSI logo on the lid might spoil it for Carrie and company, the rest of us will adore it. MSI has said it will release an 8.9-inch version of the Wind...

Advent 4211: It's the MSI Wind, but cheaper

Crave Want an MSI Wind but can't afford the £320 asking price? It's quite simple: MSI is an ODM (original design manufacturer), which means it makes barebones chassis for its own use and to sell to other companies, known as SIs (system integrators).

Mesh MSI PR600 review

Reviews Instead, it takes machines like this one -- the MSI PR600 -- and resells it under its own brand name. MSI has decided to adorn the machine with a keyboard that includes a full numeric pad -- just like a standard desktop keyboard.

Netbooks: Best Eee PC alternatives
