It's very, very thin, and very light. MSI’s X340 somehow manages to be sleek, sexy and undesirable all at the same time.

Our pics and first impressions of the hotly anticipated ultra-cheapie, and yes, it's better than the Eee in several ways.

Disappointing ergonomics, but the blend of power and battery life makes it very good value.

MSI's MegaBook L61OI lives up to its 'mega' moniker with a large 15.4-inch widescreen TFT, desktop CPU, excellent graphics and pumping audio. The model we looked at was a pre-production prototype notebook and as such was a little shaky and did not come with all the inclusions a final model will have. As a proof of concept, however, the notebook is quite good.

While not unfamiliar with barebones PCs and small components designed to take your PC out of the study and into the lounge room, the MSI MEGA PC is the first out-of-the-box system we've reviewed that would snuggle right in amongst your hi-fi components.

At the dizzying heights of performance that the Ti 500 version of the GeForce3 is able to achieve, there is not much headroom to distinguish between the competing models of the major players.

Not only did the high-performance MSI G3Ti500 take the Speed Award, but the budget G3Ti 200 also received our Value Award. Clearly, MSI has pitched the G3Ti200 at the budget arena, combining a winning price with an impressive set of features.

MSI's Prestige laptop comes with a whole bunch of goodies: how does a wireless mouse, 4GB USB key, leather carrybag and leather stitched lid sound, for starters? And that's before you look under the lid.

Great image quality and a good range of features make the MSI a real bargain.

We reviewed the MegaPC180's predecessor, the Mega651, in September last year (Issue 70, page 46) and were fairly impressed with the way this unit handled for a first generation crossover Hi-Fi/PC. The key to digital convergence is seamless integration and MSI has gone a few extra steps in the right direction to help with this changeover.

MSI's new motherboard is based on the Intel 865, or Springdale chipset, heralding the arrival of a host of new technologies (such as support for dual-channel DDR-RAM, AGP 8x and SATA) in Pentium 4 boards. These technologies have been commonplace in Althon boards for more than six months, and it's been an agonizing wait for many Pentium 4 fans.

Neither cheap nor beautiful, MSI’s Atom powered nettop is sadly second among equals.

More than just a new coat of paint, the new Wind adds mobility with 3G. While the design and features don't look as cutting edge as they once did, this is still a great netbook

A startling achievement: a highly capable mini-laptop for under $700. Only mediocre battery life mars its appeal.

A decent board, but the Hybrid SLI feature doesn’t justify the high asking price

A well priced portable that doesn't skimp on features, and packs a suprisingly powerful punch.

The 6600GT series has the best price and performance ratio at the moment, and consequently it's a very hotly contested market. The NX6600GT-TD128E is MSI's contribution to the mix, and while its a nice bundle, it's value for money needs to be more competitive.

The X700 is a relative newcomer to the PCI Express fold, and was released by ATI in response to NVIDIA's 6600 chipset. When comparing all the X700 cards that we received, we found each had its own pro's and con's, and this made them all decent propositions.

MSI's MegaCache is not the fastest performer on test but is a standout product in this roundup for many reasons, but one in particular above all: it's got a whopping -- absolutely whopping -- 1.5GB storage capacity for a portable USB disk.

Missing out on an award by a hair's breadth, MSI blew the other cards away in most departments.
