Deal of the Day: MSI Wind U100 for $300

msi-wind-u100-amz

Back in December I started to notice that the price on the original MSI Wind U100 with a 3 cell battery had fallen to around $300, but it wasn’t clear whether this was a permanent price drop or just a holiday sale price. With several new models hitting the streets in 2009, it looks like the $300 MSI Wind U100…

Sure, Dell offers its netbooks in “cherry red,” “pretty pink” and with a variety of designer stickers, sometimes you want a netbook to look business-like.

MSI Wind U120 tops out at 1GB of RAM

msi-wind-u120-dissected

The MSI Wind U120 is a lot like the original  MSI Wind U100. It ships with Windows XP, a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, and 1GB of RAM. But while the Wind U100 accepts up to 2GB of RAM, it turns out there’s no easy way to upgrade the RAM in the newer model. I’ve seen several different sets of…

MSI Wind U120 available for preorder

msi-wind-u120-amazon

Several online retailers are taking preorders for the MSI Wind U120 netbook. The U120 is MSI’s sequal to the MSI Wind U100, and to be honest, there aren’t a ton of differences between the two products. The new computer adds support for 802.11draft-n wireless and a 6 cell battery appears to be standard on all models so far, while the…

MSI plans to show off its updated line of netbooks and low power laptop and desktop computers at CES this week. To be honest, I’m not expecting many surprises.
