in terms of design, i still like MSI wind and HP mini the best..=) specs? they are all relatively alike in my pov. =)

i will definitely get an MSI wind over this. reason for this is the support of the MSI wind community. there are a lot of people who got the wind, meaning more support (different os i.e. osx, ubuntu) drivers, using the same hardware in different os etc and better resale value since more people are interested in the wind. just my 2 cents.

i like the black one
if i to buy a laptop i prefer this one….
ok din yung msi wind kya lang mahal ng konte….:p

the build quality is excellent. i tried ticking the MSI Wind’s lid with my finger, it wobbled. but the Neo V1190 is so sturdy. also, when i pressed on the MSI Wind keypad area, you can see it being pressed down. Neo V1190 is solid and compact and doesn’t flex or gets pressed down when you touch keys harder.

the keys are placed in squares akin to the Mac.

the only gripe though with the Neo V1190 are the keys on the keyboard are a tad smaller in size compared to other netbooks in the market.

and also, it doesn’t have any kensington lock, Lenovo Ideapad S10 has.

if you would gmask the black Neo V1190, that would make it even sexier.

@ badosaur, where did you buy that 10″ Vivid v1190 netbook with a discount, im also interested to buy one. The discount plus the specs are really enticing.

Got one last Dec. 22, 2008. Satisfied with physical features. Just can’t use much now coz doesn’t have an internet connection yet. Badtrip Smart Bro…out-of-stock sa lahat ng pinuntahan kong service centers!!! Gusto ko sana globe broadband na lang…ayw sis ko…any comments?

Hi TIN! Instead of applying for a Smart Bro why not just purchase a DSL connection and if you want to go wireless then buy a wireless router (now they are relatively easy to setup). So you have the choice of a faster connection speed by connecting directly to the router through LAN a cable and if you want to go mobile around your house then you can use your WIFI provided by your wireless router.

i’ve had mine reserved and i’m getting it tomorrow for less than 18k! i do hope i won’t have any regrets. =)

ok un per4mance…pro ala n b ittgal un battery?1hr 30mins lng kc un usage ko.

hi.. i bought V1190 just this night.. Ask ko lang tlga bang ganun xa pag gingamit umiinit ung ilalim ng notebook.. Thanks for the reply..

Thanks for the reply.. I’ll try it.. So far wala nmang problema pag ginagamit mo ung cooling pad?

Thanks again sa reply..

Hi again Jhen! I have no problems on the cooling pad other than I have to carry it with my netbook sometimes. If you’re gonna use your netbook outside, say for less than 2 hours to surf and check emails on WIFI hotspots, it ain’t necessary, but if you’re gonna do long time work like typing on a theses at home it really helps to keep the netbook cool. There are many netbook cooling pad designs to choose from, but be sure to choose one that is almost the same size as your netbook. And one more advice, if you haven’t done it yet register your netbook for warranty at the manufacturer’s website. Last year their online registration is down that’s why I have to register by email sending them scanned pics of my registration card and receipt, but it’s important that’s why I have to do it.

not so good batteries,

been using neo notebook for more than 2 years now and still working very well…I’m going to try this one…looks very sleek but very affordable.

hi..
Im just wondering which is much better, is it the neo vivid v1190, eee pc 900HA or msi wind?
Im having a hard time choosing which to buy..
thanx so much..
pls help..

Hello Maine, About your web cam, I think when you bought the notebook it came with a webcam driver. Just simply install it by transferring from cd to usb and install from usb. then you can turn the cam on by pressing the “fn” button and the F12 button at the same time. If you have any questions, I am very willing to help you. just e-mail me at frank****@****.***. I can even send you some drivers to your Neo vivid through skpe. Enjoy your Vivid

I am looking for a an affordable and efficient laptop and your blog roll really helped me decide. Im gonna buy one V1190 soon!Thanks

i just bought a NEO Vivid 1193 (2GB / 160 GB HD drive) today. The SRP was 22,000 but i got mine for only 18K (cash purchase)…

I’m just disappointed with the battery. I realized that it looks different from the ones on their brochure pics…

Mine is blue… looks refreshing…

Why NEO? My first laptop is also a NEO and i’ve been using it for two years already… No problems yet, except for the battery which easily drains (1 hour lang)

I’m still using it now, but i decided to buy a smaller one for mobility… especially when I travel…

Hi! I just bought mine last Sunday at SM Annex North Edsa and it only costs almost 16k. I have a DSL connection at home and I need to buy a not so expensive wifi router. Any suggestions? Thanks. By the way, not so expensive means 1k and below..thanks again.

guys…ask ko lng OK ba ung Neo Vivid 1193? pde ba mag Adobe photoshop dun?! and how bout ung webcam nya ok ba? thanks…really need ur help..email nyo ko Brian****@****.*** thanks!

hey how can i connect vivid 1190 to internet wireless? tnx

hi liezel, maybe you encounter some strong viruses that make your netbook malfunctioned. you can contact me at my mobile at 091584***** and im willing to help you.

hello there… up to what gig ba pwede i.pa-upgrade ang memory ng neo vivid 1190 blue? gusto k sana gawing 2 gig…

au, i think you dont need to upgrade your netbook.. its unnecessary coz vivid 1190 is built to handle 1gb ram. if you stii insist,well you should upgrade your hd as well..

@maine. you can find all the drivers and istallers in the internet, just try to find its serial numbers,product names e.g;realtek ethernet card (you can browse its installer from the net). any questions try to reach me by email or mymobile if your in the phils. 091584*****.. hope this help.

Hi, I lost my webcam driver for Neo Vivid V3153 Vista Home Basic. Where can i buy or download the driver? It’s sad to know that I can’t use my webcam because of this.
Any help? Thank you. Do email me at irene.en****@****.***

Hi, just browsing for information for my Maine 4g website. Amazing the amount of information on the web. Wasn’t what I was looking for, but very nice site. Have a nice day.

yeah.want to share lang yung may problems sa wifi.. my neo vivid v1190 wifi worked with this procedures..

1. I changed my wireless settings of my router to WPA personal and G only (since ang nakita ko sa wifi ko is G mini card lang)
2.click Fn button(blue) then F3 at the same time
3. right click the wireless logo on the taskbar and select repair.

hope it will work for you.
