I hear you.
The SSD is the premium part that costs so much in PCs that gives the Macbook Air its value (that and the fact that OSX is 64-bit os, while the budget PC’s usually can’t run win-64)
Man, good location to live at for technophiles like me. =)
Yeah, SSDs are most of the expense. I remember paying about 450 for my first computer back in 2000. It was a 486! Then I upgrading to a Pentium, about the same cost.
I’m very impressed with my machine.
