Every application I launch, launches in a fraction of the time. I don't like to leave every application I use (some of which are horrendous memory hogs, such as Illustrator and Photoshop) running perpetually, so having next to no load time is an amazing benefit. Textmate is another excellent example. Search in project is completely usable with an SSD. I had temporarily switched to AckMate because of how unbearably this feature was, now it's instant again. Booting faster is the least of my cares as my laptop is only rebooted when updates force me to.
