MSI, others to showcase Android-based netbooks at Computex?

It was at the 2008 Computex show in Taipei where we saw the coming-out party for Atom-based netbooks running XP. With any luck, Computex 2009, which begins June 2nd, will usher in the era of the Android-based netbook. That's where the Economic Daily News claims MSI will "showcase" its Android-based netbook as MSI begins shopping reference designs around to the major PC vendors. Of course, HP, Dell, ASUS, Acer, and others have already been seen experimenting with Android netbooks. XP may be paranoid, but it's no android.
