MSI's X-Slim X370 Challenges Macbook Air, Samsung Series 9 Want an ultra-slim laptop like the MacBook Air or Samsung Series 9, but don't want to spend $1300 or more? Keep an eye on MSI's X-Slim X370. No price has been announced, but it's based on the more affordable AMD Fusion E-350 CPU and just slightly thicker and heavier than those other guys, so we're hopeful it will come in well under $1000. - Senior Editor Jason Cross Top Story MSI X-Slim X-370: The Ultrathin Laptop Race Heats Up Similar in approach to Apple's Macbook Air and Samsung's 9 Series, the MSI X-370 is less than an inch thick.
