I dont have a windows machine anymore, I run OS X and openbsd and freebsd, so a hackintosh would be a plus.

I heard you can run os x on the MSI netbooks but never heard anything about those.
Battery life is good with OSX about 5-6 hours. It's a little better with Win7 and the same should be said for Snow Leopard with it's released.

I have a buddy with the MSI Wind and he had a heck of a time getting OSX on his. With the Mini 9 you can pretty much install it as normal, run a little script and all is good.

The Mini 10 can not run OSX. The Mini 10v (the mini 9 in a bigger case) can. So if you're buying one to run OSX keep that in mind.
