User Reviews about MSI Wind U100-427 10-Inch Pink Netbook - 2.5 Hour Battery Life

I bought this for my sister and she loves it. Have not heard any complaints. It's such a practical machine. -- No issues

I bought this for my wife as a work tool, but it has been used mostly by my teenage daughter as a facebook/internet connection. My wife is not especially patient with technology and has been frustrated by the compact keyboard. She is an exceptional keyboardist but finds herself making mistakes with this because she cannot get accustomed to the size. My daughter uses it all the time and enjoys it. Sometimes the screen is too small for an internet game or something, but overall it works well for her purposes.

The product is not designed as a desktop publishing unit and would not function well for that purpose for "older" folks. Young people, who are accustomed to phone sized keyboards probably wouldn't mind using it for papers or taking notes.

The quality of the product itself has been very good and we have had no problems - and the price was very affordable. -- Nice Internet Tool

Back in the old days of 1998 my husband came home with a 'laptop' computer, going on about how it was so wonderful. I agreed with the concept - leaving the confines of your house and being about to work on the road, in a hotel, or a la Jack Kerouac writing any time any place. But then i saw the animal. !? It was huge and heavy and broke my shoulder just hauling it around. Along ... lo many years later....came the MSi Wind - the real personal computer. She's pink - my favorite color (okay, don't laugh) and sooo cute. She has a great wireless card, and everything i need in a computing pal. She's my best electronic buddy. Light and quick. I've written two novels on her and lots of blogs and short stories. Amazing, you'll love her - or if you get it in black or blue or whatever...? Enjoy -- OMG finally. The personal computer has arrived

Bought 2 of the wind u100 for my 8yr old daughters.
The netbooks are excellent, setup takes 15mins out of the box, and pretty much everything you require is already loaded.
Battery life is only about 2 hours, but these days your never far from a power source.
If i have one complaint, its that it does not pick up the WIFI that strongly, but that could be my router.
Well worth the money. -- MSI Wind

My wife loves her new netbook. The hard drive is huge for a laptop this size. Everything works really well. I wish it didn't run Windows XP (Vista or W7 would be better), but since her old computer had XP she's right at home.

The only negatives so far are the loud fan (although after a couple of weeks of ownership, it either doesn't come on very much or we're used to it) and the screen strains the eyes after browsing for a long time. It's also a little weird to have to use another computer to install software (from a DVD) on this one and there aren't instructions about how to do this for a novice.

We haven't traveled with this yet, but it should be nice compared to my 17.1 inch Toshiba laptop. -- Great Netbook at a Great Price
