Early adopters form a line. Personally I don't need to spend over $3,399 on a 128 Gig drive. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820609259 Interesting that the spec provided quote data throughput but not access speeds. I think I'll wait until it gets down to a more realistic $40 or $50. :-) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136075 Lambert -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of jwcolby Sent: Friday, November 30, 2007 8:01 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] OT: Friday (weekend) fun: Erlang <snip> On a more interesting note, Solid State Disks are finally here and readily available: http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=636&Tpk=solid+state +disk Yes, they are still expensive but even these prices are low compared to what was available and these prices are dropping rapidly as manufacturing picks up steam. Dell is now actually shipping laptops with a 64 gb solid state disk. We live in exciting times. John W.
