The MSI Wind is one of the best netbooks I have seen come out of the flurry of netbooks that has hit the market in the past few months. It offers a 10″ widescreen, Intel Atom processor, and WIFI with Bluetooth priced well under what some of the other mainstream competition charge. All of this seems to come with a small problem: Battery life. MSI is only selling the 3-cell batteries, which averages just over 2 hours of continuous use. This is not good. Well, now it is available with a 6-cell accessory battery.

For the $500 price you really couldn’t ask for much more beyond the longer-lived battery. The screen is really not bad, the keyboard is great, build quality is top notch.

Intel will be hard pressed to make enough atom processors to keep up with worldwide demand, opening the door to other companies to compete with the Atom.
The Dell Inspiron Mini 9 (DIM9) won’t be as popular this year as the Asus was this past year. With 60 companies using the atom processor, the competition will be fierce, and the profit margins very tight. The key for Dell was to dive into the fray. Dell’s future plans, which may include mixing it up with the telcos, may be much more revolutionary. Stay tuned.

The Asus Eee PC 90 is my favorite pick. They are hard to get, but last I checked, you can still find a few at http://www.NetbookComputers.com
