There was some discussion of solid state drives a while back. This looks like an interesting entry-level option<br><br><a href="http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/11/09/review_storage_kingston_ssd_now_v_40gb/">http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/11/09/review_storage_kingston_ssd_now_v_40gb/</a><br>
<br>40GB for £70. I wouldn't call 40GB 'bugger all'. That should be plenty of all the applications you need. They say Windows 7 needs 20GB. Really? How many DVDs does it come on?<br><br>I'll consider one at some point. My next planned upgrade is to get a large LCD screen. The PC is fast enough for my non-gaming needs.<br>
<br>BTW I upgraded my Kubuntu system to 9.10 Karmic Koala at the weekend. No problems during the upgrade, but have picked up a strange problem. When 3 users are logged in the 3rd gets their X session killed at random times. Very annoying as I'm often 3rd one in when I get home and wife+kids are already logged in. Seems perfectly stable with just 2 users.<br>
