I just bought an x25-m g2 80gb for 235 and I feel it was extremely worth it! And I'm poor! I got that with a college grant refund for money I didn't use during the semester, biggest improvement you can make to a mid-mid/high end desktop these days! Windows boots in 15 seconds from BIOS, and I spend no time waiting for applications or anything really in the OS- Image all the time I am getting back that would otherwise be spent waiting on my PC to read from a mechanical hard drive.
