I clicked the link because I thought it said "MSI Ships Sleek Slidebook $20 Windows 8 Hybrid"

In terms of the device, I love the use of an mSATA SSD as the primary drive, instead of just a caching drive, that's a good thing.

looks nice except for the using Intel HD4000 graphics, hope they have options to use a mobile graphics processor obnboard and the HD4000 is just the basic equipment one

I think what really sets this slider apart from the others out so far (Toshiba and Asus) is the use of the IPS panel. The other sliders (Toshiba and Asus) do not have IPS which means they have horrible viewing angles while the MSI slider will have a large viewing angle. It will be interesting to see how the Surface Pro will stack up against MSI Slidebook S20 for the business traveller.

I tried a slider, think it was from acer, back on Win 8's launch day. Sort of odd, wonder if the sliding mech will last...
