I bought a Dell XPS M1330 with a 64GB Samsung SSD in it, as well as some other goodies like Wireless USB and and LED backlight. I wiped most of the drive and installed Vista Ultimate x64.
I feel like I went into the future a few years, mainly because of the SSD. Holy WOW is that shit fast.
Booting is fast. Running Word or Excel results in teh applicaiton almost instantly appearing on the screen. Visual Studio 2005, which normally takes about a day and a half to install was finished in 15 minutes. And on and on. And the silence is eerie.
More soon, but holy wowsers I’m in love.
