 Great Netbook October 14, 2008

I purchased this netbook from Amazon and I am amazed. I had previously purchased the Asus 900 from Best Buy and it was awful. I have never seen anything so slow. Returned it and after reading the reviews on the MSI Wind 100U decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised at its speed. Faster than my Vista laptop that's for sure. I love this computer. The only thing I would change would be ordering this with the 6 cell battery. The 3 cell is OK and give you 2 hrs plus. If I use the Eco Friendly mode it goes longer but slows down some. I will order the 6 cell but could have saved some money if I had purchased the 100U with the 6 cell in the first place.

Light, affordable, cute, quick, and friendly. I just write with her but she is also a wireless E-mail maven who keeps me in touch with all of the latest gossip. She'll go anywhere with me. There are people who have pumped up thier mighty-mite into a steroid raging gamer but for me the basic black cute little number says it all, She is so sweet and with a 120 gigabite hard drive she never forgets a thing, She make me proud to take her out to the internet cafe' When I touch her, I know, what luxury feels like.

Lightweight and fast with plenty of power. I installed Microsoft Office and have no problem running the programs. I am also able to do presentations on an overhead projector. But when I do that, because of the wide, low shape of the screen; the display is reduced to only a small part of the screen. This problem would be the same for any laptop with a wide screen.

OK, so I fell in love with it as soon as I opened it and started using it. But my love was misplaced. After 10 days of use the f12 key and the "o" key have fallen off and will not clip back on. So now it's off to warranty I go. Bummer.

The little laptop that could....with only one quirk October 30, 2008

I've been waiting my whole career for a product like this. I am a consultant who travels - but who also wants to be able to work anywhere in the house, office, or client site. The Wind U100 fits the bill. It is small, light, fast, quiet, bright hi-res screen, with ample storage, a solid feel and professional appearance. It boots and/or resumes quickly and locks onto Wifi signals fast. It runs cool to the touch. It is perfect - except for the quirky keyboard. The keyboard is as about as large as it can get, the keys are well spaced and respond well. The only problem is that when you type, the leading cursor will disappear and then reappear at some other random spot on the page - and as you continue to touch-type, it proceeds to alter or destroy a section you thought you just finished. Tried adjusting mouse cursor controls in XP, but to no avail. It is also not a "fat finger" problem. Perhaps the quirk is unique to my machine. Were it not for it's mad cursor disease, it would earn 5 stars.
