MSI Wind Custom Mod -- Now with Touchscreen

The MSI Wind is undoubtedly one of the most durable netbooks available -- of course, Nokia's Booklet 3G is suffice to say, just as enduring. Whilst the humble netbook's overall form factor has not changed drastically over the past couple of years (besides increasing screen real-estate, keyboard size and a few other minor transmutations) this may be one of those endearing changes.

Insanely Wind Forum member c0ff33, has drastically modded his beloved MSI Wind; using slider based phones as a model, he was able to invert the 10.1-display on top of the keyboard (which might we point out is now a resistive touchscreen). As an added bonus he moved the power button next to the screen whilst also adding a button to choose either Win7 or OSX upon system boot. -- Does it get much better than this, I think not.
