Advent 4211 Netbook Jul 30 2008

Yesterday I picked up an Advent 4211 netbook. It’s exactly the same hardware as the MSI Wind, only it’s a re-branded, cheaper version. It’s a really cool piece of kit, and I thought I’d stick some unboxing pics up for all to see. You can check them out on Flickr here.

So I’m waiting on a few other bits to arrive (another stick of RAM, a replacement wifi card, and an external DVD reader), and then this weekend I’m going to attempt to switch out Windows XP on this bad boy and replace it with Mac OS X (using this guide). That’ll make it a really cheap, ultra portable Macbook, for coding on the go. Awesome!
