MSI Wind U100 Gets a Huge Price Cut, Only in the Philippines
Posted in: 10-inch, MSI Wind, tags: MSI Wind, u100
Spotted a local PC dealer in one of the Malls in the Philippines selling the MSI Wind U100 at around $549. I immediately checked Amazon and it is currently listing the MSI Wind U100 at an SRP of 552.85. This model comes with the 1GB RAM, 80GB HDD, Windows XP and 6-Cell Battery Pack. That’s definitely a big difference in prices, right?
But wait here’s something more. As part of an ongoing promotion, the said Philippine store is offering to upgrade the memory of the MSI Wind to 2GB and its HDD to 160GB. Now, that is definitely a big steal! The promo period runs until September 30, and I’m hoping to raise some funds to get one for myself. Maybe it’s time to replace my Asus Eee PC 701 4G model by now. Any donors out there? :-)
Incidentally, said store is also selling another version of the MSI Wind called U100Lx. What makes this model different is the fact that it only comes with a free DOS OS. This unit sells for around $422. And the store is also offering to upgrade its HDD to 160GB for free!

Gadgets are fast revolving nowadays. Its like you paid a pretty penny for an all-around mini notebook. Of course the store is in the philippines that’s why amazon price is cheaper because of the exports.
I bought my MSI Wind Netbook U100 last July 2009 for only 299.00 euro (1 euro is 65 pesos at that time I bought it, so it cost me almost (P20,000)in the netherlands. And that is cheap for great specification: Intel atom N270 1.60Ghz, 2G memory, 160G Hard disk drive, with built in cam and mic, bluetooth, wireless 802.11b/g/n, and 6 cells battery ( 5 hrs battery) for normal usage. i think is the default market specification of MSI U100.
