MSI Intros 14" CR400 'Classic' Notebook
According to MSI, these machines boast a "unibody" frame that has been made popular by Apple in their latest MacBook Pro machines. Other specifications include a 6-cell battery, 2kg weight, a so-called Ergonomic De-Stress keyboard, NVIDIA GeForce 8200M G graphics, a LED backlit panel, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and an ECO Engine that helps conserve power when possible.
As for the CPU, you'll get an Intel Core 2 Duo chip alongside 2GB of DDR2 RAM (4GB maximum), a 1.3MP webcam, Ethernet, 4-in-1 card reader, three USB 2.0 sockets, a 2.5" HDD (250/320/500GB), DVD SuperMulti drive, and audio input and output ports. MSI has yet to reveal pricing, but we suspect it'll be pretty modest given the hardware here.
