Great little netbook
- Pros: quick little machine for the size and weight, handles everyday computeing with ease. decent battery life at just under 4 hours while in constant use. Perfect size for bringing on a plane, can watch 2 full length movies on one charge while in the air
- Cons: no bluetooth, but there is a mini pcie vacant inside to put one but opening the case will void your waranty
- Other Thoughts: the wind u230 will be coming out soon it will have 4gb of ram and a dual core neo with hd3200 graphics and 7 home premium preinstalled and will be the king of all netbooks power and performance wise, well at least till the next beast is released
Best Netbook until next gens come out
- Pros: Uses better graphics chip, ATI X1250 than any other netbook with the outdated intel graphics. The screen size is awesome with a HD supporting resolution to boot! Battery life is good with 4+ hours. Keyboard is large enough and yet this netbook is still compact. Great for viewing and converting RAW pictures into JPEG while on vacation.
Install Win7, this netbook is definitely more responsive under 7 compared to Vista.
- Cons: Vista and Office 2007 updates and patches takes over 5 hours of downloading and installing.
No bluetooth but resolution and size are more important to me.
Minor but the raised surface on the F and J keys needs to be more pronounced.
- Other Thoughts: After finally getting Win7 HD videos 1080i from my camcorder are now playable without stutter, something Vista was incapable of doing.
I also played 720p Quicktime trailer but you need to have that be the only open window to prevent stutter.
MSI thanks for all the drivers online in case I format and redo my hard drive or upgrade to a SSD in the future.
Problem with display panel
- Pros: Looks and feels nice. Great newegg customer service team.
- Cons: I had to RMA twice for problem with the display panel. The first one had an area near lower left which was like a flash light beam. It was visible only when the background was in black. The second one had an additional problem in addition to the problem mentioned earlier. It had a dark area in the right upper corner unlike other area. It covered approximately 4 sq in of an area. It did not get brighter.
- Other Thoughts: Is this problem prone to MSI U210? I am hoping they were just 2 unlucky netbooks. I sure like to get one that has no such problem.
