I am hoping that it will come with XP installed, not as a downgrade from Vista like on the Mini Note. If MSI can maintain their reported pricing with XP installed and if the Atom is at least as good as the Celeron in operation with the low power improving the battery life, then the Wind may be just the machine to but a crimp in HP's shorts.
