How Many MSI Wind Clones Can You Count?

Laptop Mag is trying to keep track of the number of rebranded Winds that have popped up around the world. To start with they have got the Advent 4211 in the UK and Germany, the Medion Akoya Mini in other parts of the world. And Wikipedia lists 13 OEM versions of the Wind. In addition, the Sylvania g netbook MANGI and Averatec Buddy are also MSI Wind rebrands.

Interestingly, some rebrands are cheaper while others are more expensive, compared to the original MSI Wind. As to why consumers would be willing to pay more, it all depends on individual reasons, like brand loyalty or certain unique features.
