Solid-state hard drives? I want to purchase some netbooks for staff and one of the ones I'm looking at has a 16GB solid-state hard drive. Should I give a shit?
These will only be used to email and access the Web. Occasionally, I would think they'll need to download and save images to send as attachments. Thoughts? |

16 GB should be enough for what they'll be using them for 
...can I have one too?  If you will, so will I | |

Netbooks are cool ... if they won't use them for document editing and such they're good to go. Maybe see that there are some larger screens and keyboard/mice in the office for a more ergonomic working environment.
The SSD's reduce the moving parts ... that's less trouble 
Go 4 it. | |

My VAIO with a SSD is super fast turning on and finding anything on the SSD is equally fast. Absolutely go for it. No loud spinning, generates less heat, uses less power...no cons IMO. | |

http://www.tomshardware.c...,1955.html I get 6-7 hours out of my TZ laptop, easy. My SZ, with a regular HD, gets 3-4. So, I say it does, and that's all that matters to me! | |

As soon as the 1.6 Terabyte SSD falls below the $500 mark I'm gonna stick one into my PS3...300gb I put in a few months ago is getting full pretty quickly. Wer ist dort? Unterbrechende Kuh. Unterbrech... Muh!!! | |
