Where did you get the impression that the MSI Wind was going to cost $700? The announced price for the Linux version is $399. At that price, it blows away the Eee PC 900/901.

The EEE 900 was released May 12, 2008 - not June 2008 as stated.

Please use a sortable HTML table like somebody from this century.

I don't get why you say the HP is too expensive. It's specs seem to be way better than the other laptops you reviewed, and the price seems about average among the laptops you reviewed.

Why is HP mini-note out of competition? In the article, the author says the reason is its price. However, given the price of EEE 900 being equal to that of HP M-N ($549 vs $499-599$), and the specs of mininote is better than EEE 900, I don't see the reason recommending EEE 900 over HP Mini-note. The SSD on the EEE might be faster than 5400rpm HDD, but since it's a UMPC, it is intended for light computing tasks.

...except for the fact that the MSI Wind will be priced at $400, not $700 like this article says. This makes it far and away the winner, IMO.

Oh, and in case you're wondering about the speed of Wind's Atom processor...

Yeah, it's fast.

All of You sad PR type-in-every-forum people.... You really don't get it, do You?? It's the SSD FLASH HARD DRIVE that makes the eee 10 times better then any other of these eee-wannabe's(only the classmate has any merit). it 10 times faster, eat's 5 times less power and is 100% drop, kick, fall, slam-your-mother-in-low-on-the-head proof. amateurs >:?

A nice HTML table (or even CSV) would be nice, as that image is hard to read.

I would be very interested in seeing actual battery life on the MSI Wind. The claim is 6 to 7 hours. If anybody has done any tests, I would definitely be interested.

Having used many of these mini-notebooks, the entire product category could have some issues for different reasons for different consumers. There are big trade-offs between a mini and a full notebook at the same price.

i checked the chart.... the best feature IMO about the asus eee pc is the ssd. So many people keep bashing around their lapotps then getting upset because they don't work anymore... SSD is a must in sub notebooks in my opinion because they're just durable, they're faster, and more reliable. Why would you want anything but flash in something this small? extra storage? what's the point of having it if it's just going to break? These companies products will likely fail, or not do well due to this lacking feature. under the durability logic, anything mobile should have an ssd.

Asus Eee PC 1000
If anyone has noticed, the display is 1024
x 600, normally this resolution on all the computers I have seen have 1024 X 768! There is 168 horizontal pixels missing! What were they thinking? Well, maybe that's why they (big maybe)get 7 hours battery life. From what I have ran across, you might be lucky getting 5 hours. Where is the honesty in advertising? Why is America the LAST to get anything here with these notebooks?
