MSI Wind Running OSX

Just watched a few vids of the MSI wind running OSX with NO problems.


Take a look for yourself. Definitely on my "to buy list" when it comes out in the states. At less than half the price (and WEIGHT!!!!!) of the cheapest Macbook how could I resist?!?

yeah but with the msi you are basically getting an air minus the dual core which I am fine with (not buying this thing for video rendering or anything) AND it's 400 bucks. Steal is right. I am sure it will run 10.6 (Snow Leopard) just as well too! This is a case where people buying this thing would be STUPID not to get OSX running on it over XP or Linux in my opinion. I have seen Vista working on it too pretty well, but meh I have enough systems with Vista. Time to get rid of the Macbook and have enough cash to score two of these (one for me in black and one for the gf in pink)

Would be kinda neat to mod one of these things to look like a macbook with the "glowy" apple on the back and such. Fun project. I bet much money can be had on eBay doing this too lol
