The almost a netbook Wind X-Slim 340 from MSI, was briefly listed on their website in black and white, with a starting price of $1099.99. The notebook has now disappeared from the site, but UPMC Fever have managed to get hold of the 13.4 inch display notebook. Inside the 0.24-0.79 inch machine, features a Core 2 Solo 1.4GHz processor, 2GB of RAM and a 320GB hard drive. Also inside the tiny notebook there’s also WiFi and Bluetooth modules, but not much room for anything else.
Taking up one third of the space is the motherboard with the hard drive and cooling fan taking up most of the other space. There’s only 1 mini PCI-E slot inside which is in use by the WiFi card. Other components are soldered into place on the motherboard.

If you’ve ever wondered what the Acer Aspire One D150 looked like inside, then wonder no more. The folks over at Netbook Italia have dissected the D150 and gone into great detail about it.
Unlike many other dissected netbooks, Netbook Italia have included a guide on how they took the Acer Aspire One D150 apart, right from removing the battery and bottom chassis, all the way through to removing the screen from the top chassis. From the guide, it looks as if it’s easy enough to upgrade the RAM or hard drive.

You can view the full guide on how to take the D150 apart, whether for fun or to upgrade your RAM, over at Netbook Italia.

The folks over at HP 2133 Guide have shared some more photos of the HP Mini 2140. This time however the pictures focus on the internal workings of the netbook. Yup, they’ve taken the 2140 apart, minus the screen.
Both the top and bottom sides of the motherboard are on display as well as the empty shell and with the top shell off. It’s noted that the 2140 is much easier to dissect than the HP Mini 2133, which they’ve also photographed taken apart. The chassis of the 2140 has less screws holding it together than that of the 2133, which also reportedly is harder to remove the top part of the case.
