Anyone considered solid state yet?

Im considering getting the Solid State hard disk for my main PC. Only the 16gb version, just enough to install Vista Ultimate on and maybe my most frequently used programs/games, and thus using my older SATA hard disk for everything else.

Is anyone else using one of these yet? Did you experience any problems installing windows?
Does anyone know of anything that I should know before buying one? £130 is pretty cheap I think.

I wasnt aware the SSD's we're that bad?
I was looking at the Raptors too for quick hard disks. I wasnt aware the 500gbs we're fast?

well i just ran a quick benchmark tool on my current machine and its telling me 44.9mb read and 54.5mb write. That doesnt seem that much different to SSD:

thats tempting, but expensive.
