The "Wind" range is the latest ultra-portable laptop design from MSI. Weighing just 1kg and only 19mm thick it’s the perfect mobile PC for the road.

Armed with the Intel Atom processor it make light work of your everyday tasks providing performance that you might expect from fully fledged laptops.

What’s more, the 80GB Hard Drive gives you enough room for your important files and plenty more besides. So, if you want to store your music and photos too … no problem.

Two stand out features of this solidly-built little machine are the vibrant 10" display and the excellent keyboard. The screen has impressive viewing angles, and is perfectly clear in bright daylight, while the keyboard is one of the best you can get on a notebook of this size. There is also an "underclock" feature which can be activated to give extended battery life.

On top of all this you also get additional features that you’d normally struggle to find on such a lightweight model. The HD stereo speakers provide amazing sound quality. While the integrated webcam makes keeping in touch with your friends quick and easy wherever you are.

Pc Pro summarised the Wind as;

"the breath of fresh air we’d hoped for all along. It looks good, feels good and its ergonomics are by far the best of the mini-laptop bunch. For less than a quarter of the Sony VGN-TZ31’s cost, you simply cannot buy a better ultraportable."

With all this at such a fantastic price, it’s no mystery why the Wind comes so highly recommended.

19-Aug-2008 Vik: When you will get the WinXP model in white? I'm surprised that you don't have it displayed here.

Easycom: We haven't got stock at the moment but give our sales team a call and they can check to see if we will.

24-Aug-2008 K.: What are the weights of the adaptors for the MSI Wind 10" and the Assus Eee 1000 10"?

Easycom: About 200 grams.

31-Aug-2008 damodai: Is it possible to order this with 2 gb ram ?If so what is the price?

Easycom: Yes it is. You would need to call our Sales line for prices.

3-Sep-2008 Harzk470: Whats the graphics card like on this?...What can it handle?

Easycom: It wouldnt be suitable for games unfortunately.

5-Sep-2008 Malin: How much does it cost to have it shipped to Denmark? How long would it take to deliver?

Easycom: Delivery to Denmark takes 3-5 working days and costs 37 euros

20-Sep-2008 Bill: How many usb ports does it have?

peterh: The U100 has three USB 2.0 ports.

30-Sep-2008 Lukas: Hi, Can you tell me whether this product could handle CAD software as i need a portable laptop to go on site with.

SteveF: No, this is really what they call a 'netbook' meaning its really just a portable internet machine. CAD is complicated program and will require a fully fledged laptop. Try the Samsung Q210 or Vye mini for portability and power.

2-Oct-2008 ThePresident: Is the keyboard better than the eee100h keyboard? and can I fit a 128gig SATA-2 SSD Harddisk to it?

SteveF: keyboards are down to personal taste so I can't really answer that one but if the hard drive connects via usb then yes you can use it with this netbook.

Easycom: No, it has XP pre-installed.

Expand/CollapseSpecification queries

12-Aug-2008 G: Is this Msi Wind U100 the 3 cell or 6 cell version. Can i order the six cell?

Easycom: This is the 3 cell version but call our sales team to check availability of the six cell batteries.

28-Aug-2008 fdiez: about the warranty, some sites mention 1 year manufacturer's, and you mention 2... are you offering 1 extra year if i buy it from laptopsdirect? please explain...

Easycom: It's two years with this model.

28-Aug-2008 Derek Harris: I have a PDA which is charged when I am driving, can you do the same with MSI U100 and is the adaptor included or extra

Easycom: There is no travel charger included in with the laptop (just the standard plug charger) but it is capable using one such as the UCA0001A

3-Sep-2008 shiva: I am a bit confused , Does this product ship with a 6 cell or a 3 cell battery? There are 2 previous questions about this one is answered that this is the 6 cell battery while the othetr says it is a 3 cell battery. Please clarify

Easycom: It is a 3 cell battery, sorry for the confusion.

3-Sep-2008 Julie: Hi, I have been reading you Q & A's and it is a little contradicting. You say it is a 6 cell battery in one answer and then you state it is a 3 cell in another answer, which is it, thanks

Easycom: Its a 3 cell battery.

7-Sep-2008 Wee: Does it have IEEE 802.11n (draft) Wireless capability, on the ESI website it says it doesn't but you have it listed in the Tech spec?

Easycom: The wind is b/g band wireless, the tech spec has now been amended, thanks!

12-Sep-2008 David: Does this version come with the synaptic or sentilic touchpad?

Easycom: As far as we're concerned, the machine ships with a Synaptic touchpad but having studied the forums it appears that some machines are being released with Sentilic touchpads, which are deemed inferior. I would contact MSI on that one to check whats going on.

13-Sep-2008 Adam: Hi, back to the batteries - it's a 3 cell but there is the potential to get a 6 cell if we ring your sales team - what's the number to call? There's a number to call for the 'double memory deal' so I'm not sure to use that one or a general 'contact us' number. What number should I call regarding getting this with a 6cell battery? Thanks

Easycom: Please call 08701670818 for any sales queries.

13-Sep-2008 Adam: This has just been released in Red, any idea whether you'll be able to ship it in Red? :)

Easycom: Please call our sales team on 08701670818 and they'll be able to check that for you.

18-Sep-2008 Mark: Hi, would this or any other Netbook be able to handle video streams from say Youtube and will it be ok to play video files like divx or mpeg and others. Also, would it handle an external DVD Writer?

Easycom: Yes it would.
