MSI Wind U100-641US Black Intel Atom N270(1.60 GHz) 10.0" WSVGA 1GB Memory 160GB HDD Netbook

Pros: Very nice overall. Impressive speed for what it is. Very peppy until I loaded all my applications and data.

Cons: Speakers tinny. (Expected); 160GB HD partitioned into 100GB & 60 GB. 60GB has OS; I quickly filled it before moving "My Documents" to larger partition. HD developed errors after 2 days. (Fixed with Spinrite) Customer service person was impossible for me to understand. Had to download Synaptic driver for touchpad to disable "tap to click."

Overall Review: MSi should start a "chat" function for help. (Would eliminate the accent problem.)

Pros: The value for the money is great. Once I got it working properly, it is more computer than I expected.

Cons: It was clearly stated that all support would be through the manufacturer. This laptop should never have left the factory with the fan unplugged. Company tech support (NOT newegg) was hard to understand and not helpful.
