Hell yes, more players = cheaper, faster, quicker progress.
Only drawback is that your purchase becomes obsolete and loses value quicker :D
With SSD value loss will be a lot less than a hard disk. As soon as you buy a current hard disk it loses 80/90% of its value, its not worth bothering to sell on.Quote:

I'm getting myself a 160Gb model when it comes out. These will be prerfect for Small form factor PC's. And no more noisey drives whinning as Vista gives it a spanking. :)
no noise?
Roughly the same noise produced by a CompactFlash card, or a USB pen drive, or a SD card.Quote:
