I don't disagree about stuffing ram in servers, that's obviously the best approach, but it isn't always an option. I'm talking about the desktop experience. Many of us are limited by time and circumstance and are still using 32bit OS's on the desktop. I can't stuff it with RAM, but my Intel X-25M SSD makes my desktop smoke like no other hardware upgrade ever has. My of us are also stuck with mission critical legacy 32 bit servers that we can't just take down and upgrade so easily and licenses for enterprise versions of some db's that can handle assloads of ram don't come cheap. SSD's are much cheaper and a no brainer upgrade for that aging db server that just needs to be faster. The X-25E smokes here letting you get that speed without needing that expensive license.
