Hey Kevin,

If you have a chance to compare both MSI Wind and EEE 1000H’ heat and noise, I would appreciate some feedback on it.

I´m about to pull the trigger, and heat and noise are the “dealbreakers” for me…

Thanks!

Its back on YouTube now. It was stating “This video is no longer available” when I checked the other night… I’m not sure what was going on, but it sort of seemed like a DMCA takedown or something… :)

the Winds 6-cell actually looks pretty good, it molds well to the case. much better than the extended battery on the HP or Acer (and probably Lenovo as well).

how is the build quality overall? how would you compare it to other machines like the Acer?

you keep growing that hair out Kev & your ganna be prettier than your wife

Hmmm… not sure what’s going on with the video. It’s still there in YouTube, but the status shows as “processing” for some reason. I’ll continue to look into the issue.

Good questions about this when compared to the Asus 1000H; we’ll have a head to head comparison in the next few days. Me and my Fabio locks are looking forward to the “netbook deathmatch”. ;)

Nope, looks like it was a Chrome error

I just tried to add a comment from the new ‘Chrome’ but it gave me
“This web page is not available.
The web page at http://www.typepad.com/t/comments might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.”

I’ll try sending from here to see if it is Chrome or the link
By the way, I was writing to let you know the video of the Wind is no longer available – I was looking forward to that – boo hoo

This is no longer on YouTube…

I’m done with these netbooks, for now. I’ve been through two of them (Eee 701, Mini-Note), and I’ve decided that they’re just not for me, at the moment.

For what I need something like this for, they’re going to have to get even cheaper. The Acer is close at 349, but to me, 250 would be just about perfect.
