MSI, the Taiwanese makers of the popular Wind netbook, is hoping to create a new category for low-powered, inexpensive computers called "nettops."  Dubbed the Wind Neton, MSI’s nettop is an all-in-one desktop, meaning the computer’s guts (i.e., CPU, hard drive and memory) are crammed into its display — similar to Apple’s iMac. The main difference is that the nettops are running the low-powered Atom processors designed for mobile devices, meaning they’re streamlined for web browsing and basic computing tasks. The Neton prices will range from $400 to $800 depending on the screen size you choose (15.6, 18.5 or 22 inches). There will also be touchscreen options, according to Engadget China.
