Laptops Arena

If we forget about Dell, MSI is another company that I really love, and with products that never disappointed me. Unfortunately, I still have to try some MSI laptop for a longer period of time, and grabbing some MSI optical drive wouldn't make me more happier than some high-end MSI video card, if I think well about it...

... but let's stop dreaming and talk about the MSI X340 now, shall we? I'll start with the sad part and tell you that, at least in the near future, you'll have to go to Japan to grab one... or at least send someone to get it for you, because the MSI X340 will only become available there, at the end of next week.

The technical specs list isn't such a big surprise, since the MSI X340 got a lot of media coverage until now, so if you missed hearing about it so far, here's what should be enough to make you interested in this little guy: Core 2 Solo SU3500 processor, 2GB of memory, 320GB of storage space on a "classic" HDD, and a 13-inch LCD. Add its sexy shape, and you may have a winner...

According to MSI Japan, the X340 should become available on the 6th of June, priced somewhere around 100,000 Yen. That's a bit expensive, in my opinion, since we're talking about over $1,000, at the current exchange rate... but sexy gadgets shouldn't come cheap, right? ;)
