Excellent "value for money" notebook

Posted by Phil Mason on 29th Apr 2010

UK expat... also bought the dual core CPU white colour model. Excellent in between netbook/notebook size pc. With good overall spec, performance, full size keyboard and decent screen size to boot. For those who are prepared to have something slightly larger, this pc beats ANY Atom CPU netbook by far ! Only downside or mistakes by MSI... 1) this pc should come with a 64-bit o/s, making full use of the CPU & Chipset 64-bit architecture to take full advantage of the supplied 4GB RAM and future RAM upgreadeability to an impresive 8GB, 2) The optional 3G WWAN should be ready fitted as standard, to make this pc fully mobile with internet access, 3) Screen desperately needs to have an anti-reflective finish; Overall Score: 8/10. Corbell (Singapore distributor) customer service... mixed ! They stated, to fit the optional 3G WWAN and digital TV tuner modules would involve changing the whole motherboard, which is completely FALSE according to MSI in the UK. But, at least they sent me a recovery disc FREE of charge; Score; 5/10. Netbooks.com.sg, no problems with these guy's. Excellent communication and friendliness. They delivered on time with a superb "value for money" undercut price of anyone else ! Would purchase from these guy's again... RECOMMENDED; Score: 10/10
