D420, Worth upgrading to SSD?

Also, i'm only going to be using it for majourly light photo editing in Photoshop, ALOT of Office use (outlook 07 open all the time), iming, internet use. pretty much it. when i use it at school, i can just rdc.

 

Which 64GB 1.8" ZIF SSD goes for $260? I hope it doesn't have jmicron/jmicronB controllers.

heres another(32gb) http://www.solidstatecentral.com.au...page=product_info&cPath=85_86&products_id=229

 

just wondering if i was to stick with vista, and the original hdd, could i just use a sd card with readyboost to access the more used applications?

 

Maybe a third option could work around the storage issues. There's a just-released cheap netbook. Faster gpu/HDD, slower cpu. Reviewed here.

Lots of interest and discussion in this thread about it. Great price too, easily imported via www.priceusa.com.au but it's interesting that Gateway's Warranty support page for Australia is blank as shown here.

 

Looks nice I'll look into that!
