For those nerds that care about Crysis 2, this laptop’s definitely not for you. For those mobile warriors that constantly travel around and needs an overall solid notebook, then do read on. Apple’s 13-inch MacBook Air might only have Core 2 Duo, and Samsung’s 9-Series 13-inch ultra-portable might have the latest Sandy Bridge version Core i7, but MSI is taking quite a different route this time.

Their 13.4-inch ultraportable is getting some new muscles from AMD instead; as their 1366 x 768 resolution display will be brighten up by AMD’s hot-off-of-the-presses Zacate E-350 APU with the help of Radeon HD 6310 graphics. Connectivity wise, there’s HDMI / VGA outputs, a pair of USB 2.0 ports, an internal card reader, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, gigabit Ethernet, a 1.3 megapixel camera and (nearly) as much DDR3 memory as you can stuff into it. You’ll also get a 320/500/640GB hard drive, a 4- or 8-cell battery and a chassis that weighs 3.08 pounds with the smaller of the two cells.

Operating system though is the usual suspect of Windows 7 (64-bit), but the company’s stopping short of providing a hard price or release date.
