Anyway it looks awesome, except for all the fan openings on its left side, and I love that the keyboard extends right to the edges.

Is the ram upgradeable?]]>May 16th 2008 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/
Anyway, best translation I've seen so far for Google, it was actually readable for the most part, and the pictures were great.

Bring it on!! Eee PC Vs MSI Wind! Gotta be one helluva brawl..

Can't wait to see what the next round brings. Maybe we'll get down to those mythical prices originally announced for the Eepc.

The MSI Wind is far better than EEE to me, but we've just got to wait the official release, and some pretty good benchmarks.

That's just how it is referred to in a number of foreign countries.]]>May 16th 2008 2:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/May 16th 2008 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/
I'd have to agree with another poster above. If the ECS G10IL doesn't release anytime soon, I think this is the route to go in terms of ultra-portable laptops. I'm a bit disappointed there hasn't been any news trickling in on the unit, because I'm pretty excited for the HSDPA feature in it since I'll be in Hong Kong for the next few years and 3G being cheap and affordable there.]]>May 16th 2008 3:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/May 16th 2008 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/
I'd be interested in HP's Mininote too, if it came with XP instead of Vista. ]]>May 16th 2008 5:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/
Many seem excited over the Atom, but I'd like to know its benchmarks vs other processors. I hear it didn't do well against the 900mhz Celeron in the EEE, but I think it was a gimped model or something?

I'm used to Intel's ULV processors, so I was hoping to see maybe a Core Solo ULV in this.

Though I hear Atoms are much cheaper. I think Atoms have quite low L2 cache?]]>May 16th 2008 3:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/May 16th 2008 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.hothardware.com/Articles/Intels_UltraPortable_Atom_Unveiled/?page=2
Seems like a good article on the Atom, if you haven't read about it yet.]]>May 16th 2008 5:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/16/chilean-msi-wind-gets-in-depth-hands-on/
