We weren’t sure the last time about which processor MSI plans to put into its Eee PC killer. Well, now we know that MSI Wind will be using Atom processor, Intel’s newest portable chip. The 10-inch LED based display sports 1024×600 pixel resolution.
This week’s highlight has been the SlashGear team knuckling down to cover HTC’s London launch of the Touch Diamond smartphone. Our hands-on video of the Windows Mobile 6.1 device is pulling in some serious views, so if the thought of a 3G iPhone is leaving you cold then you need to be checking out the [...]
MSI have taken a brief hiatus from pushing their Wind rival to the ASUS Eee, and launched the Titan 700 small form-factor PC. Measuring just 185 × 240 × 70mm, the compact computer uses a Mini-ITX board complete with a 2GHz VIA C7 processor, integrated VIA CN700 graphics and 1GB of RAM. It seems particularly [...]
Online retailer eXpansys have revealed pre-order pricing for the MSI Wind, for both the Linux and Windows XP versions of the 10-inch ultraportable. For the XP Home version, eXpansys are asking £350 - or $610 through eXpansys USA - while the Linux version is £320 ($560 in the US). That makes the Linux [...]
If Gateway’s or Alienware’s gaming laptops don’t meet with your approval, how about MSI’s offering? The GX600X is an evolution of the GX600, packed with an Intel Centrino Duo CPU, 3GB of DDR2 RAM, a 15.4-inch widescreen display driven by NVIDIA’s 8600M GT, HDMI and an e-SATA connector. It also has the curious ‘Turbo’ button, [...]
It’s been a week of ultraportables, frankly, with enough budget laptops vying for the Eee’s crown to make the whole market more than a little confusing. Medion announced their Akoya E1210 while 3K unveiled their own alternative; meanwhile, MSI finally released some decent photos of the Wind. Thankfully there’s now a comprehensive list of all [...]
Having been somewhat light on press images for their new Wind budget-ultraportable, MSI have gone to the other extreme with sixteen all-round shots of the white notebook. With a design vaguely redolent of the MacBook, the Wind will be available with 8.9 or 10-inch screens (both running at 1,024 x 600 with LED backlighting), an [...]
MSI’s Wind ultraportable was only announced last month, but already Uruninceleme have had one in for a video fondle. Unfortunately for those not lucky enough to speak Turkish, the conversation between the two presenters is somewhat difficult to decipher; however, the Wind itself speaks in the international language of “cool gadget” and so we [...]
MSI has dropped a few more details regarding its Wind ultraportable, and in the process criticised rivals such as ASUS’ Eee. We now know the Wind will be available with 8.9 or 10-inch LCD screens with LED backlight, running at 1,024 x 600, feature an 80GB standard 2.5-inch (e.g. not SSD) hard-drive and weigh [...]
According to a Chinese-language paper, Commercial Times, there are sources that say that MSI will be launching its Wind notebook in 8.9 and/or 10 inch sizes priced between $470 and $1099. I don’t know what kind of budget PC they are marketing that is going to cap out at a little over a thousand dollars [...]
