Reviews for the MSI MS-1013

MSI MS-1013 Blue Media

It has been 5 years sine I own this notebook and find it hard each time to part from it in order to make room for another mobile new model. It survives many of my rough handling during traveling. I even dropped it a few times only to find it running further at the push of the button. With many newer models doing away with an optical drive on this notebook size (less than 13") I have the feeling that this would be with me until the board really croaks out.
