Could this be an iPad Hackintosh? The MSI Wind notebooks are a favorite of hackers looking to install Mac OS X on an inexpensive device, and the MSI Wind Pad 100 does share some of the same specs as the netbooks in the Wind product line.
However, the Wind Pad 100 won't be a slouch in the OS department. This is not an Android device or a keyboard-less netbook running a watered-down version of Windows. In fact, MSI claims the Wind Pad 100 tablet PC will sport a full-version of Windows 7 Premium, complete with a thin custom UI for touch friendliness.
MSI also unveiled the Wind Pad 110 at Computex, which will sport an ARM processor and Google's Android OS. Other details on that machine were scarce.
