MSI Wind Desktop PC

The new MSI product is a spin off of the Wind but in a desktop mode. The announcement of the desktop, follows closely with EEE PC and thier desktop counterpart. Here are some pics of the desktop.

The desktop looks a little Wii-ish but from this angle you can see a DVD drive, mic in, audio out, two USB's, and a 4 in 1 card reader.

Here the desktop is upside down, the motherboard featuring Intel Atom processor at 1.33 Ghz. The hole at the bottom is for the DVD drive. The only thing missing is a HDD, but it does have to power connectors so one might go in the empty space.

Here is the back of the mini tower (if you can even call it that) which has all the audio jacks, (very surprising) four USB's, an ethernet port, VGA out, and a fan to keep the Atom CPU from getting hot.

New Pictures Of Wind

Here are a few new pics of the Wind



The vent holes give away the chance of the Wind to run cool, the curve is really nice for a subnotebook that costs $550 dollars, looks like Apple

Atom finally is around the corner


Since this is a prototype, we'll give MSI another chance with the right Windows version


Looks like a good case for the Wind, alot better than the EEE PC sleeve




Nice bright display




Keyboard shows big spaces between keys, MSI could have done better





Windows XP looks good on the 10" display, but the trackpad looks a little out of proportion...plus to add the little one button right and left click, just like the EEE PC
