    Default MSi Laptops

    So I bought one for the wife and me for Christmas. We were watching the price at hhgregg drop nearly daily, I guess they were clearing out the stock. We called around and found ONE in Atlanta. Anyway, we ended up paying $350 for it.

    I'm really happy with it. It turned out to be a pretty stout laptop for gaming, and even wirelessly, it browses faster than both of our desktops.


    Features & Specs:
    Intel® T3000 processor
    15.6″ WXGA widescreen LCD (1366 x 768 resolution)
    3 GB DDR2 memory (2 Dimm)
    250GB hard drive capacity
    Supermulti DVD-RW optical drive
    802.11b/g/n WLAN
    1.3 megapixel webcam
    Nvidia GeForce 8200M-G video graphics
    HD audio with 2 speakers
    HDMI port
    3 USB 2.0 ports
    4-in-1 card reader
    PCI Express slot
    VGA port
    103-key keyboard
    65-watt AC adapter
    6 cell battery
    Windows 7 Home Premium

    Anybody else have any experience with them?

    The only problem I thought I was having was with the WLAN. I couldn't get it to find any access points. Then I loaded up the owner's manual CD-ROM, and found that one of the little silver buttons at the top turns the wireless on and off.

    No problems whatsoever after that.
