MSI U210 notebook now available in the U.S.

MSI is probably best known in America for its Wind netbook and Wind Top all-in-one computers. The firm also makes lots of other notebooks including the Wind U210 with a 12.1-inch screen and a 250GB HDD.

Video: 12-inch MSI Wind U210 gets a thorough going over

As long-time Engadget readers know, there is nothing so riveting, or for that matter so wildly sensual, as a laptop unboxing in a foreign language. That’s why we’re proud to present you with this video of an MSI Wind U210 being unboxed and manhandled as only the kids at BlogEee can do it: en Francais! But that’s not all, they give it a pretty thorough going over as well (with a more than extensive gallery to boot). As far as looks go, this is pretty much a typical Wind: plastics are identical to the U100, and while small details may differ “the resemblance is still striking.” Even though not a “netbook,” the site ranks the 12.1-inch laptop rather high on the portability scale — after all, it is only 1.46 inches longer and 100 grams heavier than its precursor. But what are you waiting for? Hit the read link for all manner of philosophical musings on things like USB and audio in / out placing on the device. But not before peeping the video after the break.

MSI Wind 210 with AMD Athlon Neo announced for Europe

We see what MSI is doing. First, they released a followup to the Intel-packin’ X-Slim X600 with an otherwise-identical AMD-based machine called the X610. And now they’re making the MSI Wind U200 available with an AMD processor as well. And what do you think they’re calling it? the U210, of course. Starting at €399, the Wind U210-002 sports an Athlon Neo MV-40 1.6GHz processor with 1GB memory, 160GB HDD, and XP Home. The Wind U210-010 ups the ante a bit with 2GB memory, 250GB HDD, and Vista Home Premium, going for €449. We don’t have the exact release date, but we’re sure by then the company will have more laptops to shove an AMD processor into.
