I totally agree if it's a choice between somewhat decent SSD (e.g., I'd probably avoid the Samsungs that Apple actually offers) or hard disk, go for SSD. I'm just disappointed that Apple hasn't yet enabled TRIM support. They apparently laid the groundwork for it in the kernel but haven't actually finished off the work. Every time they roll out new models, I check to see if they've actually enabled TRIM support in a point update of OS X but they haven't. They'll eventually have to as it's being rolled into the ATA specification.
