MSI Wind also official

Posted in: 10-inch, MSI Wind, competitor, tags: , , ,

Just at the same time as Asustek has officially announced new Eee PC 901 and Eee PC 1000 series, MSI officially announces MSI Wind, another decent Eee PC competitor.

Just to remind you that this 10 incher features Intel Atom 1.6GHz processor, an 80GB 2.5 inch disk, Bluetooth and 802.11b/g WiFi, 5.5 hour battery and option to choose between Windows XP Home or Linux based system.

The most challenging fact is the price, $399 for a Linux-based system or $499 for Windows based version makes the $625 price of the new Eee PC 1000(H) pretty tough to justify.

    Wow, Eee 1000 appears to be 56% more expensive! I guess it should evoke some response from Asus…
