Netbook Reviews

It has been a little while since we first heard the rumors of an MSI touchscreen netbook based on Intel’s new, next generation Pine Train Atom platform.

MSI has since confirmed the new MSI Wind U150 netbook, and say that the new Intel Atom chipset is due to be official launched at this year’s CES coming up at the start of next month.

The popular MSI Wind range of netbooks has grown by one with the addition of the MSI Wind U210.

A few weeks ago MSI announced the new 12.1-inch MSI Wind U200 “thin and light” CULV based netbook. Now they have announced a new netbook based on the U200, but with a AMD Neo processor called the MSI Wind U210.

The MSI U200 sits right on the line between a netbook and a notebook. At 12-inches the new MSI Wind U200 is bigger than you would probably want to a netbook, but certainly smaller and lighter than most laptops.

Great news for those of you who are patiently waiting for the updated an improved version of the U100, the MSI Wind U123 is now available!

The MSI Wind U123 is an updated version of their popular Wind U100 netbook. The main new feature of the older U100 is the new, faster Intel Atom N280 CPU running at 1.66GHz, and a larger capacity battery.

MSI have updated their popular Wind U100 netbook with the improved MSI Wind U100 Plus. The U100 Plus adds even more color options to the netbook by adding “Metallic Blue” and “Rose Champagne” to the already existing three colors.

The main upgrade we can see on the MSI U100 Plus version is the new Intel Atom N280 (1.66GHz) processor, which is faster and consumes less power.

We have previously written about the MSI Wind U123 before, but now it seems MSI have revealed three versions of the new Wind U123 netbooks.

The MSI U123 is MSI’s newest and slimmest 10-inch netbook, improving on the very popular Wind U120.

MSI have launched their new MSI U110 Eco netbook as part of their successful Wind range. Personally I would consider all netbooks “Eco” as they use very little power compared to a desktop PC or even laptop, but the MSI U110 Eco takes this even further, leading to an incredible battery life of nine hours.

MSI have just released a great looking new nettop called the MSI Wind Nettop CS120, or maybe even MSI CS120 for short. This nettop / desktop PC features all the usual features you would expect to find, such as WiFi, and the Intel Atom CPU, but there is also a nice DVD rewriter sitting in the middle via a neat slot feed.

The new MSI Wind NetTop CD130 has been announced by MSI and shown off at both CES and CeBIT.

Looking very much the the Wii (let’s hope MSI don’t have a lawsuit heading towards them) the MSI CD130 is available in Wii white, and black color options.
