[...] I’m decided not to bother with the 9-inchers. I was already at the verge of buying the MSI Wind some weeks ago but I’m glad I decided to postpone the purchase. The ASUS 1000H appeared on [...]

I’m getting me one of these for sure. But I’ll wait for 2 months more. By that time the 6 pack battery cell will be available.

One more thing, Intel is coming out with with the Intel Atom Dual Core. Who knows, the newer MSI Wind Model (If they come out with one) might come before Christmas 2008 equipped with this new CPU. Or probably they’ll change architecture and use NVIDIA’s computer on a chip called The Tegra.

I wouldn’t mind paying a little extra for this machine.

When I saw it in the display, I asked to try it out to get a feel of the weight and speed…. and I tell you straight out…. I am impressed.

The MSI Wind is very OK. I continue to read reviews and some are branding it as the best of its kind out there. Aaaah! The lack of optical drive doesn’t bother me since I seldom use it anyway. Gaming? People are playing Warcraft III with this mini-laptop, but, yeah, I don’t play games anymore.
As of now, one me wants to run and grab what might be the last stock. The other me is wishing it will be sold out so I’d be forced to not buy it and save P25,900.
I need a sign….

yeah, weird it’s cheaper than the ones on the online stores (I’ll try to check it out sa SM North). My laptop is still PhP 2,000 cheaper, hehe, just with 20GB less hard disk space and the lack of Bluetooth. Pero siguro for you, if you aren’t really concerned with the optical drive and siguro you won’t play games (naman!), OK na. May desktop ka naman eh.

If you do buy, try to snag some freebies. I was able to get a nice mouse, a still-unused webcam, and a now-malfuctioning bluetooth adaptor for free.

Hi Nelson! As stated, the RAM is 1GB and hard disk 80GB but both are expandable. As of now, I am still successful in holding myself back. Lol!
This blog is under Philhosting. I guess server9 has just returned to normal when you came for a visit. I had connection problems earlier too. BTW, thanks for the tag correction.

Looks more like an imitation of Apple’s MacAir to me. I guess you can say that you really need one right now already. Besides, it’s a big probability that you’ll eventually have one in the near future. And hey, how’s its RAM and disk space?

P.S. This blog’s not hosted under Philhosting.Net, right?
P.P.S. As of the moment, Philhosting.Net seems to be having troubles connecting to all the databases. The heck. My site suddenly became inaccessible and I confirmed that it wasn’t only mine when I checked UPVisayas.Net and Philhosting.Net itself. Both returned a “cannot connect to database” error as well. Ugh.
P.P.P.S. You misspelled a tag in this post.
