| Title | MSI Wind U100: Wind U100 |
| Reviewed By | Darren Gladstone |
| Summary | MSI's Wind NB U100 is one of the first Intel Atom-based mini-notebooks to appear. And like the Acer's Aspire One, it gives a clear idea of what the bargain-priced CPU can handle. Other components include 1GB of RAM, an 80GB 2.5-inch hard drive, and ... |
| Pros | Reasonably Bright 10-inch display Hardy construction |
| Cons | Not much in the way of extra software Not much in the way of extra software |
| Verdict | There are some solid reasons to consider MSI's Wind. It's small and fairly light (about 2.6 pounds), and it's sturdy enough to take a beating. But other solidly-built mini-notebooks are just around the corner, including Lenovo's S10 and probably an ... |

| Summary | The MSI Wind will probably be the first laptop on the market with Intel's Atom processor inside |
| Pros | Atom processor ; Power efficient ; Nice keyboard and screen ; Overclocking |
| Cons | No optical drive |
| Verdict | The use of the ageing Intel 945GSE chipset will no-doubt keep development costs to a minimum for manufacturers but it does mean the Front Side Bus (FSB) is limited to a maximum of 533MHz. So, in real terms you won't see much performance gain over the ... |

| Summary | Roomy keyboard and nice looks, but too expensive, hot to the touch, and loud. |
| Pros | Grown-up looks (as opposed to "day care" or "developing-country villager"). Largest screen among minis. Includes three USB ports, a VGA monitor connector and an SD slot. |
| Cons | Lack of DVD is understandable, but it still makes us cry. Hard drive emits mysterious sounds. Two-hour battery life is just OK. |

| Reviewed By | Florent Alzieu |
| Summary | The Medion Mini Akoya E1210, which we tested last month, is widely regarded as a clone of this netbook, the MSI Wind U100 |
| Pros | - Big screen, - Fast, - Larger keyboard is more ergonomic, - Plenty of storage: either 80 GB or 160 GB |
| Cons | - Very poor battery life, - Feedback on webcam microphone, - Small touchpad, - Fn and Ctrl keys swapped on keyboard |
| Verdict | It's impossible to deny the similarity of Medion's Mini Akoya E1210 to this model, but there a few differences nonetheless. Whatever you think of these near-clones, they still don't present a very serious threat to Asus' EeePC series. |
