    I guess that the lower-end Air (which comes in at the same price as the MSI refurbed) would've been the better machine to compare it to, but I suppose the numbers would still be in its favor by a wide margin.


    What a terrible attempt by MSI. No matter what people say about Apple, they offer a great deal of quality in fit and finish above some competitors.

    instead of "unemployed mans macbook air" how about, the "average and logical spending persons macbook air" because i have a great job, but i could never find the money to spend 2000 on an air. And that 2000 could go to something more useful...bills

    @I heart cake farts: I wouldn't really call it the "unemployed man's Macbook Air", but rather the "sucker's attempt to get an Air-like notebook for much less but could've just spend the same amount of money on a superior refurbished Macbook Air".

    @Kaiser-Machead: Aye. The review has a strangely maligned conclusion too:


    While not as tailored as the MacBook Air, hey, it's damn close.


    After:


    The X340 is clearly closer to a netbook than the MBA in performance


    Mmkay…


    I actually have one and it performs adequately for traveling and photography.

    @iomatic: "Tailored" is the word you overlooked in that paste.

    I though that 'cheap' was the latest & greatest thing for PC's - based on the 'Lauren' ads...


    This article says cheap PC like it's a bad thing!


    So confusing....

    After viewing the pictures, I have to say, that for once, I don't doubt MSI's commitment to Sparkle Motion.
