MSI Wind U90X Netbook Reviewed

MSI’s Wind U90 is another model of MSI’s Wind netbook lineup, the other being U100. LaptopMag has done a review on the Wind U90X netbook, which is a Linux-based version of the U90.
The Wind U90X is powered by an Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz processor, 512MB RAM, 120GB hard drive. It has a 8.9-inch 1024×600 LCD display, WiFi 802.11b/g connectivity and a 4-in-1 card reader. It runs SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10.
LaptopMag’s Verdict:
The MSI Wind U90X’s keyboard is the largest and most comfortable of any 8.9-inch mini-notebook on the market, and we like its spacious hard drive. However, opting for the SUSE Linux operating system was a mistake, and therefore we don’t recommend the Wind U90X over the Acer Aspire one or the Dell Inspiron Mini 9. While its $369 price is appealing, only those willing to replace the SUSE OS with a version of Windows or another flavor of Linux will find the Wind U90X to be a decent 8.9-inch netbook.
