UPDATE:

notebook = advent 4211 (same as MSI Wind)

Check that, because I'm fairly certain it's not 100% the same as a Wind. I have a Wind and the ONLY thing I'm waiting to get working is the internal MIC. Seems to me that perhaps they use a different WiFi card that doesn't have OS X drivers (both cards in the Wind now have OS X drivers).

In addition, the latest BIOS update (1.09 and now the 1.0A) have the overclock function. I don't know if the BIOS on the Advent has this. Very noticeable in OS X.
Have fun!

I have the advent 4211c (120gb hard drive) dual booting Windows 7 and Osx 10.5.6 - OSX runs like a dream and all the hacks/mods from msiwind forums work fine - I think it is basically the same as the wind. I upped it to 2gb ram which was no hassle but I haven't yet flashed the bios for the overclocking features - the 1.6ghz Atom runs fast enough for most work for me - I even used iMovie to make a 45minute movie from 3 hours of digital filming on my Snowboarding holiday - and it handled what I consider a pretty heavy duty job without a problem.
