good article.... kudos for that people are dropping 400 dollars for the solid state drives needless to say vista is nanny software at the point where xp 32 or 64 becomes more trouble than it is worth that will be the point where i buy new hardware and a new op its amazing how many people have hardware that was never backward or forward compatible or upgradeable 400k sectors and a translation to 512k sectors sounds like the ram hard drives to me
