Summary: Excelente computadora
Comment: 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 baterÃa de 6 celdas, para una mayor duración.

Summary: great computer, useless support
Comment: 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.

Summary: Great bang for your buck / dollar / Euro / Peso / etc.
Comment: 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.

Summary: Solid netbook
Comment: I bought this netbook for the sole reason of taking notes during classes. It's small and comes with its own soft case which makes it perfect for sliding in a bag whenever you think you may need it. It's light so you can barely notice you're carrying it around. I got the 6-cell battery and it is awesome having 5.5 to 6 hours of battery life on one charge.
The wind also has the ability to run a couple older games. I spend a lot of class times playing Starcraft or Warcraft 4. The built in blue tooth allows me to just turn on my mouse and it's working.
The one negative I have with it is the trackpad. MSI pulled the old bait and switch by starting by selling touchpads by sentillic, a well known touch pad maker which had the side scroll on it (drag your finger down the right side of the pad to scroll pages). Now they are shipping these with a less known brand of touch pad, and due to patents can't include the drag scroll method. One other quarrel I have with the touch pad is that the physical right and left click is on the same bar. They are not separate buttons.

Summary: Just my size.
Comment: Works well. No problems. Bought portable cd/dvd burner that works great. Battery great. SOUND very weak.
