Battle of the breeze: MSI Wind vs. MacBook Air
 Remember back when we went nuts and compared a Samsung Q1 Ultra to an Apple Newton? We've been eating the crazy pills again. Today, we woke up and decided we'd do another mental comparison--the MSI Wind versus the similarly gusty MacBook Air. Okay, so one costs S$2,988 (US$2,199.92) and the other S$849 (US$625.08), but to hell with it. They're both laptops, they're both ultraportable, they both have keyboards and screens, and they're both so gorgeous they cause random strangers to accost you on the street, demanding to know where you got them from. And you can make fart gags about their names--that's all the reason we need. So which is best? The great silver hope from Apple or the dirt-cheap Eee PC ripoff? Over the next few pages, we'll take a look at their design, usability, specifications, and any special powers that'll help us decide which one blows the most. Yes, we already know it's not fair, but whatcha gonna do? Click through, that's what. Warning: The following is a fun look at two popular laptops. It is not meant to be an objective comparison between two competing models and should be read only for academic purposes. This article first appeared on CNET UK. |
