I’m still not certain that the speed vs. cost factor leans all that greatly towards an SSD instead of more memory. Perhaps when they start matching prices with standard HDDs then I might consider purchasing one.

It's easier to justify on a laptop, where you also get to factor in increased battery life because you're not having to run spindle motors.

There's a thought. Roughly how much would you say it increases battery life?
