How are you liking the SSD? I've been considering one for a while now.

Nothing wrong with Toshiba. I have a:
Toshiba L505
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
AMD Turion II Dual-Core Mobile M500 2.20 GHz
4.0 GB Ram
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200
15.6" HD TruBrite display with a 16:9 aspect ratio
300 GB HDD
Built in web cam.

Only have a couple complaints about mine really. Not enough USB ports, had to buy a hub and the touch pad is a little to sensitive. Can be typing and it jumps around on me.

Other then that, it does everything I need it to.
 
My current desktop is an iMac with a 27" monitor and Intel I7 processor:

Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac11,1
Processor Name: Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 8 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Processor Interconnect Speed: 4.8 GT/s

Display:

ATI Radeon HD 4850:

Chipset Model: ATI Radeon HD 4850
VRAM (Total): 512 MB
Resolution: 2560 x 1440
Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color

This model includes a one gig hard drive.

What's missing is resolution independence on the screen. Also, the built-in DVD drive on these macs is a bit pokey, but it works fine.

My other computer is a macbook pro, about two years old.

I run VMware Fusion on the macs on those rare occasions when I need to run a Windoze program. There are only a couple of Windoze programs I still use from time to time. The macs run them fine.

How are you liking the SSD? I've been considering one for a while now.

It's working out well.

It certainly helps having the OS on there for general responsiveness, but I do a lot of photo work in Adobe Lightroom and having the catalogue db file also located on the SSD makes a huge difference when working with multiple 8MP RAW images.

Both computers are Dell Inspirons. One is a desktop and it runs vista premium, has a 250 gig hard drive with 2 gig ddr ram and the rest I can't tell you. My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1564 with I5 processor, 430 M, 4 gb of ddr3 ram and the rest I can't tell you. It's middle of the road I guess. Works great for what I do. Oh and its running windows 7 premium (both are 64 bit)
