I purchased this netbook for my wife and we are both pleased with it. The white color was a big plus hor her as she detests black computer items. The Wind has worked well and we are quite happy with the purchase. from Amazon.com I haven't touched my pc since I got it! They say that these aren't going to replace your main computer, but so far mine has, and I've still got a ton of memory after downloading some of the same programs I have on my pc. I bought it in white and I love it! It's a beautiful pearl white and it resists fingerprints, which I love since I have a curious 3 year old. from Amazon.com great small computer regarding its internet capabilities.it comes with few software that can be a bless sometimes. The only problem is that is much heavier than I thought!. It was meant to be the ultimate portable device in my bag but it isnt. Other than that, great. from Amazon.com This is a really nice netbook. Fit for purpose since I'll be using it a lot during traveling (and left my bigger laptop at home). It's light weight and the 6 cell battery gives around 4 hours autonomy (browsing with WiFi or watching movie). from Amazon.com I researched Netbooks for a few weeks (read until my eyes burned!) before making a decision on one. What I wanted was something inexpensive, super portable and simple to use, especially when traveling. from Amazon.com Love the MSI win has the best screen on a netbook that I have seen. Only drawback is that the curser arrow has a tendency to juggle for a time and then it stops when it is jiggling you have almost no control over it. from Amazon.com I did alot of online research about netbooks and according to the specs and all of the reviews of other netbooks and the MSI Wind I decided to go with the U100. Although the U120 was available I decided to go with the U100 because the memory can be expanded to 2GB. from Amazon.com It is lightweight, fast and comes loaded with Windows XP Home which I am used to. I purchased the 1 Gig memory and was able to install it in 5 minutes (for about $10 what a deal!). from Amazon.com I like the style and size of the MSI Wind. I bought it for travel and think it will work out fine. from Amazon.com This is a nice little netbook. It runs on xp home which is ok but, i put windows 7 beta on mine and it runs much faster. I also installed an extra 1 Gb of crucial memory , For 10 dollars you cant beat it. from Amazon.com
