The war of netbooks has grown at a high level, with all manufacturers of view on all aspects to provide an advantage over their competitors. Micro-Star International MSI Wind U100 latter has been marketed as a superior technology in the segment NETBOOK of more than 10-inch Asus Eee PC 901/1000/1000h and other outcomes. The technology of war on the best delivery of the child, however benefited the customers who are obsessed about the performance and the size ( small to read) – the majority.

MSI Wind U100 has a decent 10-inch LCD screen resolutions of 1024 × 600, powered by latest Intel low power processor, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, pre-installed with Microsoft Windows geniune XP Home Edition System operating an ergonomic keyboard and large.

Winner of “Best Performance Chip Award – 2008″, MSI Wind is highly recommended for people who are always on the go. Equipped with 3-cell 11.1v 2200mAh battery, MSI Wind has not yet found good results with the battery life . With this (battery life) is the exception, the rest is all good with this mini notebook. A competitive price with a whooping $ 499 Hard Drive 80 GB of memory, is $ 100 cheaper than the Asus Eee PC 901. With performance on par with Asus netbooks, Wind certainly an advantage on the price for people who want something that is affordable, but worth every penny spent.

Build and Design:

It is very striking, MSI wind is very attractive to business executives and students. The body has a glossy texture for easy, comfortable grip and protected by soft rounded edges.

Even the quality of the construction of this new genre is NETBOOK first class plastic beveled edges and seams. 1 kg with a weight of just 1.1kg or 3-cell battery with an optional 6-cell battery, this small Net size is surprisingly portable and durable.

The body of the construction of wind that has been achieved through a special Instert mold roller (IMR), which guarantees the protection of portable fire extinguishing and impacts through continuous exposure to fingerprints. MSI Wind comes with a great frame and therefore, a great facility rooms ergonomical keyboard, reducing the tension of the fingers and the ability to write the wrong keys. But one of the key has been compensated for its relatively small size of the trackpad, which is a distinct disadvantage to the spacious keyboard.

The only thing that people will be lost in this book is the network bandwidth that displacement is a normal feature of most laptops.

Display:

Wind features a 10inch LED backlit matte textured LCD 1024 x 600 pixels resolution to improve the web browsing experience. The display also includes a section on energy-saving LED backlit technology, reducing energy consumption to a minimum without affect the bright and colorful display of content.

Ports, networks and add-ons:

With respect to wireless connectivity, The wind is nominal average. Comes with all the region 802.11b/g/n wireless internet connection and Bluetooth transmission interface to enable complete mobility of his works. A 4-in-1 reader cards (SD, MMC, MS and MS Pro), brings entertainment on the front complete this mini-screen, rather than helping to easily download and access digital files on your hard disk. 3 Additional USB ports are also available for connecting a wide range of external peripherals.

System Performance:

Powered by Intel Atom processor with Windows XP, the wind is performance on par with other full-size notebooks. Given that netbooks are designed specifically to work in less intensive applications which essentially excludes the gaming or heavy photo editing fast – Winds is categorically unfit for heavy applications. But based programs such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Word, Excel and similar applications work as well as in any other promsing laptops. The 1.6GHz Atom processor also includes a power optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for data transfer in various mobile applications and 512 KB of L2 cache.

Hard Drive:

The wind comes with a 160GB hard drive (5400 rpm), giving it enough freedom and space to store everything you feel for your travels or daily work.

Features missing MSI Wind U100:

DVD / CD Drive – the absence of an integrated optical drive. You have to use the USB ports available to connect the external DVD / CD driver.

Asus Eee PC 901 and hybrid engines in this class allows you to overclock the processor to enhance system power. But this feature is absent in the MSI wind with just a simple “ecological role” between the energy of battery saving mode 800 MHz and 1600MHz normal.

There is also no integrated 3G or WiMax capabilities – features that you get in Acer Aspire One (another NETBOOK). Thus, the major constraint here, because this absence is that – you can not get online anywhere. Therefore The mobility in the context of MSI Wind can be redefined so that when one is at home or at a point of access or which is connected to a third party USB dongle.
