MSI Wind U135 Review
In general, MSI netbooks have been the long-distance runners of the category; the U100, the U110, and the U123 all had impressive battery life. With its newest netbook, the Wind U135 ($329), MSI is using the second-generation Atom N450 processor, which was designed to provide up to 20 percent...

- Very good case stability
- User-friendly keyboard
- Very good viewing angle stability
- Low case temperatures
- Low price
- The display
- apart from the reflective surface.
Cons:
- Case susceptible for grime
- Center of gravity too far back
- Average VGA connection quality
- Reflective display
- Perpetual fan presence
- Speakers' poor sound quality
- On the one side
- a matt display for better netbook ergonomics outdoors and on the other
- a fan control update.

MSI Wind Millions Special Edition U135 review
The MSI Wind Millions Special Edition U135 is a netbook that looks good and is comfortable to use. It has a balance issue that we've seen in previous Wind netbooks, but we like the U135's build quality, design and features.

We have been fans of MSI 's Wind series of netbooks. They have consistently rivaled Asus' Eee PC range and HP's Mini line, and the competition has been good for the industry. MSI's Wind line has remained relatively consistent over the years, with the design staying mostly the same, but the internals...

Pros:
- Comfortable keyboard
- Long battery life
Cons:
- Trackpad doesn't support multi-touch gestures
