MSI X-Slim 320 vs MacBook Air… fight!

You knew the comparisons were inevitable, but have you braced yourself for how incredibly similar these two laptops are? MSI’s new X-Slim 320 13.3-inch ultraportable is a teensy bit wider and a teensy bit thicker than the MacBook Air, but most of the dimensions, layouts and curves are uncannily alike. As for build quality, MSI obviously suffers a bit for its netbook heritage. The plastics aren’t stellar, and the keyboard, while delightfully full size, is a tad squishy, but there’s still no denying that this is a pretty wild deal for this very particular form factor — plus that built-in 3G, VGA and Ethernet are just rubbing it in Apple’s face.
