The new model is the only one based on Intel's newer Z500-series Atom chips and uses a 1.6GHz example that gives it a much longer claimed runtime of up to about 15 hours with its standard nine-cell battery pack. Unlike the version announced earlier in the year, though, the US version uses the GMA 500 graphics... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/09/21/msi.wind.u110.in.us.with.15.hour.spec/ Mon, 21 Sep 2009 20:25:00 GMT MSI launches 22-inch Wind Top all-in-one in US http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/09/15/msi.ae2200.arrives.for.the.us/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/0909/msiwindtopae2200.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI this afternoon gave its US audience the Wind Top AE2200, the most advanced version of its all-in-one desktop. It gets a 21.6-inch touchscreen with MSI's own interface for apps, editing and games, but it's also treated as a media center with its own TV tuner and HDMI input. Helping the goal along are parts that put it above nettops and let it decode HD, such as a 2.7GHz Pentium dual-core and ... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/09/15/msi.ae2200.arrives.for.the.us/ Tue, 15 Sep 2009 17:35:00 GMT MSI bows AMD-based, dual-core WindTop all-in-one http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/26/msi.windtop.ae2010/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0908/msiwindtopae2010.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI today added a larger, faster version of its WindTop all-in-one desktop to its American lineup. In addition to a larger 20-inch touchscreen with a higher 1600x900 resolution, the easel-like PC is also the first for the US to use a processor faster than an Atom and uses a low-power, 1.5GHz AMD Athlon X2 that gives it enough power to run Windows Vista and eventually Windows 7. Switching to the ... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/26/msi.windtop.ae2010/ Wed, 26 Aug 2009 20:00:00 GMT MSI confirms mobile Core i7, touchscreen Wind http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/25/mobile.core.i7.touch.win/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0908/windsml.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI has confirmed the introduction of mobile Core i7 processors with several of its upcoming Windows 7-based notebooks .

Labeled as the first 12.1-inch notebook powered by Intel's Consumer Ultra Low Voltage (CULV) line, it comes with a 1.4GHz Core 2 Solo that gives it much more performance than a netbook but without as much of a jump in price or power use as a full-size system. Accordingly, it weighs less t... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/21/msi.wind12.u200.official/ Fri, 21 Aug 2009 15:00:00 GMT MSI Wind U115 with HD video arrives in UK http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/22/msi.wind.u115.ships.to.uk/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0812/MSIU115intro.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Complementing the US launch of the U123, MSI today started supplying the Wind U115 Hybrid to UK shops.

Unofficial tests show the system lasting as long as 13 hours on its standard 6-cell batt... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/22/msi.wind.u115.ships.to.uk/ Fri, 22 May 2009 19:05:00 GMT MSI ships faster Wind U123 to US shelves http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/22/msi.wind.u123.ships.to.us/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0905/msiwindu123-ctia.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI on Friday started shipping its Wind U123 netbook to the US. The 10-inch system we tried at CTIA is MSI's first with the slightly faster 1.66GHz Atom N280 and centers on battery life; a relatively large 6-cell pack is stock, and an optional 9-cell unit extends its battery life to over 8 hours. Lid colors are less conservative with blue and red as options.... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/22/msi.wind.u123.ships.to.us/ Fri, 22 May 2009 16:10:00 GMT MSI's 12-inch CULV ultraportable slips early http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/13/msi.wind.u200.leak/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0905/msiwindu200-leak.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI's first true ultraportable to use Intel's CULV (Consumer Ultra Low Voltage) platform has likely been leaked a day ahead of its actual launch. Put into the Wind netbook family, the U200 as found by Engadget will be closer to a notebook with a CULV processor (presumed to be the 1.2GHz Celeron M 723) and a 12-inch, 1366x768 LED-backlit display. It will also have much more in base specifications... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/13/msi.wind.u200.leak/ Wed, 13 May 2009 15:05:00 GMT MSI debuts Wind U100 Plus with Atom N280 http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/04/21/msi.wind.u100.plus/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0904/msiwindu100plus.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />MSI today unveiled a last real update to its starter netbooks in the Wind U100 Plus.

The X340 is the centerpiece, as it's one of the first to use Intel's new CULV processors; that lets it run Vista Home Premium reasonably quickly without having to balloon the form factor. The system is disconcertingly thin: at about 0.7 inches deep and 2.8 pound... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/04/02/msi.x.slim.hands.on/ Thu, 02 Apr 2009 15:40:00 GMT
