The European market finally gets its hands on the MSI Wind, perfectly timed for the IFA show which will be held in Berlin. Available in white, pink and black, the MSI Wind will cost 399 Euros. It comes with all the standard MSI Wind features and is expected to do marvellously in Europe too. Similarly, Europe witnessed the launch of the MSI Wind Desktop PC (Linux version) which is priced at just 249 Euros. This model comes packed with all the standard features but with a 320GB HD drive, 6 USB ports and a DVD Optical Disc Burner drive.
The MSI Wind PC barebones is now available for pre order at just $139 at most online stores. Unlike the upcoming complete Wind desktop, this would only be available in black and it comes with a stand for you to keep it in an upright position. Its features include a powerful 1.6Ghz Atom processor, 8 channel audio, VA Output, 6 USB ports, 4 in 1 card reader, CF card slot and Intel GMA 950 integrated graphics. However, you
would not be getting a hard drive, RAM or optical drive. It is a fabulous, irresistible
deal.
