MSI Pimps Their Notebooks With Crystals! A Look at MSI M677 Crystal Collection

Diamonds are not the sole best friend of women these days. Indeed, crystals beg to disagree.

I'm not very sure if MSI planned to target rich, Paris Hilton types of girls when they revealed their Crystal Collection but it's a pretty interesting piece that could turn laptops to luxuries. Check out photos of the crystal embedded MSI logo to see what I mean. They even changed the font! It would probably be like Breakfast at Tiffany's every day with this laptop and I literally want to sell my computer for cash!

Just like Acer's Ferrari laptop and Asus' Lamborghini laptop, MSI finally unveiled their own "exclusive laptop" which they call the MSI M677 (although I wish they thought of a more stylish name for the "blinged out" laptop instead of just naming it "Crystal Collection" because it sounds like a clothing line or a jewelry collection). Not only does it look very fabulous and expensive, it's also very functional as a laptop in its own right. It runs on Windows XP (I know, I know, not too fabulous for a crystal embedded laptop right?), and has a 1.8 GHz AMD Turion 64X2 CPU which is not so bad for a notebook. It may be so-so in the memory and hard drive department as it has a 120 GB SATA drive and it also has a 1 GB memory which can be expanded up to 2 GB through its two SO-DIMM sockets. MSI also pimped this laptop with an NVIDIA GeForce 6100 and an NVIDIA MCP51M chipsets and 256 MB dedicated NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 for the graphics and video card. Meanwhile the audio of this pimped laptop is powered by Realtek ALC883 (though it's also compatible with either Azalia or SoundBlaster). The specs would surely make any graphics oriented person want to sell used laptop for cash.

The screen is an LCD widescreen with a 1280x800 resolution. It weighs 2.9 kilos and is complete with nooks and ports for maximum functionality. It has a 1.3 megapixels CMOS camera, 6-in-1 card reader slots (yes, all the memory card types you can think of), and PC card slots as well. It's got tons of input and output ports (like 4 USB 2.0 ports) a mic-in port, headphone and share headphone out ports, and a TV out port! (I wonder how I'd look like watching TV on this laptop). It goes for 3 hours on maximum use with Lithium Ion batteries. It also has an optical drive, a DVD Supermulti writer, Bluetooth compatibility and a built-in Ethernet LAN modem and module.

Aside from looking really classy compared to other laptops out on the market today, the MSI M677 is just one of the very few laptops that are 15 inches in size (which is for me the most ideal screen size for business, multimedia and gaming) and has specs that are very dedicated to the graphics department. But who am I kidding? The best and the most eye-catching part of this laptop is the MSI logo surrounded with tiny Swarovski beads that looks so tempting to wannabe rich kids like me. A few years after enjoying this laptop, I'd probably take this MSI M677 Crystal Collection laptop and sell laptops online and make a fortune out of it! Who knows, right?
