The folks at MSI seem to be keen on pushing the envelope of product design lately. At CES, they had the odd, but sort of useful computer-in-a-projector concept. This week at CeBIT, they apparently have the MSI Toast PC — a computer that, as far as I can tell, looks like a toaster.
The Toast PC is a nettop with slim, toaster-like design. The slot-loading DVD drive at the top loads a disc sort of the way a toaster loads bread. There’s also a remote control that you can snap onto the side of the computer for safekeeping — and more of that toaster illusion.
I think I liked the Projector PC better.

At CeBIT 2010, taking place this week in Hannover, Germany, MSI is showcasing threeВ gaming laptops, all of which, predictably, pack either Intel’s Core i5 or Core i7 platform.
The GX640 and GX740 are both Core i5 notebooks with AMD ATI Radeon HD 5870 and 5850 Graphics chips are responsible for processing all images sent to your computer?s display. Learn Morediscrete graphics cards, respectively. Both have a full gigabyte of GDDR5 video memory, a 2-megapixel webcam, and SRS premium audio. Both will have hard drives ranging from 320GB to 640GB. Both will be offered with six- and nine-cell battery options.
The main difference: the GX640 has a 15.4-inch display and the GX740, a 17-inch one. The 15-inch GX640 has two USB 2.0 ports; the GX740, three. Also, the GX740 is unique in that it packs a subwoofer.
The GT660 (pictured), which was previewed last week, has a Core i7 CPU with discrete Nvidia GeForce GTX 285M graphics and 1GB of GDDR3 video memory. Bonus: it has USB 3.0 ports, which claim speeds ten times as fast as what USB 2.0 ports offer.
MSI has not yet announced pricing or availability for these three laptops.

The MSI Wind U160 is the new top of the line model from netbook maker MSI. But that doesn’t mean it’s horribly expensive. Amazon is now taking pre-orders for the netbook. It’s available for order in black or brown . Both models cost $380.
Amazon describes the 6 cell battery as a “15 hour” battery, which I suspect is a bit of an exaggeration. But I was able to get 10+ hours of run time out of the Asus Eee PC 1005PE, a netbook with the same basic specs as the Wind U160, which was described as having a 14 hour battery. So I wouldn’t be surprised if the MSI Wind U160 can run for at least as long.
The rest of the specs are pretty much standard netbook fare, including a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 CPU with GMA 3150 graphics, a 10 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, and a 1.3MP webcam. The laptop runs Windows 7 Starter Edition and weighs about 2.4 pounds.
