What's the deal with not having a swap file?

I've heard that there are some programs in Windows that require a swap file to 
function. Or is that just BS?

In the past I've run without one and things have seemed fine, but I'd like to 
know if I can get rid of it or not? Especially since I'm using an SSD drive now.

MSY usually is quite price competitive. I have an OCZ vertex and am happy with 
it. I once fiddled with moving temp files & placing to a SATA drive, now I 
don't bother. With enough ram you can also do without a swap file.

Here's some reviews:

Hi,

What's a good, fast and reliable SSD these days? My old HDD from my home 
workstation decided it's that time of it's lifetime when work is no longer on 
its books so I need to replace it.

PS>> Maybe also a place I could buy it and pick it up today.

Thanks,
Corneliu.
