Best Buy will offer the MSI Wind for $399

Comments

MSI Wind

Not surprisingly, MSI will be offering the MSI Wind netbook at Best Buy store fronts nationwide. The company mentioned earlier this week that they would begin offering the Wind at a national retail chain and of course, everyone looked at Best Buy as the first choice for distribution. According to CNET, MSI will offer only one configuration of the Wind at Best Buy. The specs include a 1.6GHz Atom processor, 1GB of memory, Windows XP Home, a 120GB HDD, and a 3 cell battery. All this will be available for $399 which makes for a fairly competitive offering (though the 8.9 inch Acer Aspire One is still cheaper). The model has yet to appear on Best Buy’s website so I’ll try and check out my local store tonight to see if they have them in stock.
