MSI US ANSWERS ALL THE QUESTIONS ABOUT NEW WIND |
|
|
First 10" Notebook to Feature the Newest Intel Processor
|
 |
CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA – May 13th – MSI Computer, a leading manufacturer of computer
hardware products and solutions, is ready to clear up some of the questions surrounding
the MSI Wind (Wi-Fi Network Device). MSI Computer will offer both Linux and Windows
(XP Home Edition) based configurations in June on
http://www.msicomputer.com
The Wind weighs a mere 2.6 lbs, but offers many of the amenities customers would
expect from a much larger notebook. Business travelers and students on the go will
enjoy the Wind’s comfortable keyboard, which is only 20% smaller than a full size
layout, and the 5+ hours of battery life the Windows based units provide. The Wind
also features a 1.3M webcam, up to a 1GB of RAM, a 4-in-1 card reader, 3 USB ports,
and Bluetooth capabilities with the Windows version.
“With Wind we struck the optimal balance of price, performance, and convenience”
said Daniel Wang, General Manager of MSI US. “We designed the Wind to offer mobile
consumers all the features of bulkier more expensive notebooks, but with a sleeker
lightweight footprint .”
