I just built a full computer for less than that.
And upgraded my main rig to 64 gb G.Skill SSD ($135 one) while on it.

Man, can you imagine one of these in your laptop with 4 or 8 gigs of RAM? :

Looks like they just dropped it down to $369.99.
Getting closer and closer to my magic number ($300) ...

Wait - why are these Intel SSD's so expensive? Not treadcrapping, just curious why something like OCZ or GSkill is a lot cheaper. Can anyone point me to a thread/site that shows why the Intel ones are better? Thanks

I have to ask, what would you use a 32 GB drive for? Don't you need a 40 GB hard drive just to install Vista?

No, I think my Vista x64 Ultimate SP1 takes up around 20GB.

Right, but the recommended system requirements for Vista are 40 GB with 15 GB available.
Seems to me that any drive you're going to run an OS and a couple of apps on only makes sense at around the 40 GB level.

I was stupid enough to make my Vista partition 100GB. I only have around 30GB free, and that's with relatively few programs installed, just Prey/Half-Life 2 games, Visual Studio 2008 and a bunch of smaller programs that probably do not even add up to 5GB. I have no idea where all the space went.
