    Well, with that money you could buy programs like Acronis true image, which basically will allow you to image the system you are running since you are probably gonna change to win 7 in a few months and the Vista image in respawn dvd will be useless.

    Dell uses the Samsung SSDs. I know the 256 model is one of the better SSDs out there.
