MSI X-Slim X320:US bound
MSI X-Slim X320 gets US green light
Back in January, we did a small post about drool-worthy the MSI X-Slim X320 netbook. It’s good looking that we actually had a competition in the office to decide which is better looking - the netbook or the rather lovely lady modelling it! The X320 won hands down. Anyway, good new - for the US market, at least - the X-Slim X320 is now ready to ship. American customers can pick it up for only $599 (the netbook, that is).
Here’s a recap on what you get for your money: the netbook features a 13-inch screen (once more, in my eyes, anything over 10 inches is not a netbook! But this laptop is so gorgeous that I’ll let them off!), the Intel Atom Z530 running at 1.6GHz, 2GB of RAM and a 250GB HDD (SSD would be nice but that would push the price up). The X320 gets a 4-cell battery and an integrated GMA 500 graphics card - it’s ok but don’t think about doing any serious gaming on it - and Windows Vista Home Premium!.
There’s a few other goodies such as the 1.3 megapixel webcam (crap!), Bluetooth and 802.11n WiFi support.
Other connectivity options include the venerable Ethernet LAN, three USB ports plus there’s a 2-in-1 media card reader. VGA output means you can plug you X320 netbook into a monitor when you’re not on the go.
Like we said, the MSI X-Slim X320 is available in the US but not the UK. However, I’m sure we’ll be seeing it here soon. If not, we’re sure you can get it through Amazon!
