MSI Wind U100-451US 10-Inch White Netbook – 3 Cell Battery – Reviews
You can take it anywhere as it’s the size of a small book and is very lightweight for a laptop. Traditional notebook laptops are designed to be desktop replacements, so they can end up too big, too heavy, and generally just too *much* for checking your email or editing a Word document in the few minutes you have whilst waiting for the train.
The U100 however, appears to more suitable for moving around frequently and using whenever you get a few moments to spare. It’s a great size, any larger than 10″ and it would no longer classify as a “netbook” class of laptop, any smaller and the screen would be less practical for serious use. Also, 10″ screens have the correct aspect ratio for webpage viewing, you don’t get wasted blank space at the sides as I’ve heard can happen with smaller screens.
It’s incredibly portable, surprisingly powerful when overclocked and RAM doubled, good value, nice to type on (80% size keys), and even looks good. It’s much more responsive running XP than I had expected, it actually behaves like a desktop PC! Microsoft has clearly removed a lot of their bloatware from XP to give these smaller systems the best chance of running quickly.
