OSX on WindBox

One of the more popular aspects of the MSI Wind Laptop is its uncanny ability to run Apple OSX very very well.

Lots of netbooks can run OSX, few can do it any way as good as the MSI Wind.

So how well will the WindBox run OSX?

Definitively I can’t say, but taking into account the specs of the WindBox parallel the MSI Wind I would imagine its going to prove to be an enormous success. The idea of mounting a small nettop virtually designed for OSX on the back of a spare monitor is going to prove far too irresistible for anyone who wants to run Leopard without forking over heaven and earth just for the experience.

The real killer app for the WindBox will undoubtedly be its place as an OSX Media Center PC in the Living Room.

An invisible VESA mounted OSX system with Front Row for less than $250 dollars  sounds too good to be true, but in just over a month or two there will be  a deluge of blurry-cams of the amazing invisible iMAC clone pinned behind a wall mounted LCD TV hitting youtube.

This is where the WindBox will really excel. The MSI wind is already leaps and bounds ahead of its netbook rivals when it comes to the OSX experience, the WindBox will just move this into the living room.

As Apple would say ‘it just works’.
