I purchased this MSI Wind U123 Laptop for my daughter in Virginia. She needed something small, stylish, and convienent. So far, so good! She says that it's lightweight, she can carry in in her larger purses, and since it came with it's own protective case, she doesn't worry about anything spilling on it or soiling it in her purse. She told me that the speed was good, and that having the wi-fi connection is great, since many "Hotspots" are availiable in her area. She just LOVES the red color, and the battery time is adequate. The only concern she and I had was that the laptop just cut off for no reason a couple of times. We're thinking that she didn't let it charge long enough for the initial use. Other than that, I think I made a great purchase for my daughter, and I am considering purchasing one for myself soon.

I had a three hundred dollar budget so I spent a lot of time researching what would give me the most bang for my buck. I found a refurb 15" laptop that was about $400 but it came with Vista which was a dealbreaker for me. I finally decided on this netbook and I know I made a fabulous choice. It has XP, a 6 cell battery instead of the 2 hour batteries a lot of the netbooks have and an Atom N280 1.66gHz processor which is a small step up from the usual cheaper netbook processors. It's a lovely bright shade of red which matches its "personality" perfectly. I bought the 2GB RAM to replace the 1GB stick and an external CD/DVD burner. It come with a large amount of hard drive space but if you require more you can buy an external hard drive. I also bought a $5 USB 4 port extension so I can plug in more devices. I personally don't miss the bluetooth because whenever I get something with bluetooth I never use it anyway. Also, I believe you can purchase a TV tuner to use with this should you want it, however this feature is not a part of this particular model. This netbook is zippy...It's really just...perfect!

I've had an MSI Wind for several months and have had no trouble with it. Any queries I had to the MSI support people were promptly and satisfactorily answered. Overall it does a great job, is easy to type with despite its size, has excellent battery life. I travel quite a bit and having a small, light computer is a lifesaver. Several of my friends have bought Winds once they saw mine in operation.

Positives

a) Decent sized keyboard - takes couple of minutes to get used to.
b) Intel Atom and 1 GB more than sufficient to perform all the work needed to do
c) Visual clarity is excellent
d) HDD space is great.
e) USB - I'm moving from an earlier version of USB (that my laptop purchased in 2005 had), the USB 2.0 data copy is super fast.


Negatives

a) Gives a feeling that it could flip over due to a slightly heavier screen
