Hello Stephen,

This is the first I've heard of the 710. What's supposed to be so special 
about that one?

Hi to all, I like the MSI Wind and though these units might be nice, the
Samsong 710 is supposed to be better?

Hello Raul,

How do you like the keyboard on the Aspire One? I know I'm absolutely
thrilled with the one on the MSI Wind.

The Acer Aspire One is a good buy for around $349.00 in most places.
It's very small, just about 2 pounds in weight and runs with Window-Eyes
just fine.

Good luck.
