Bought an SSD.

I was waiting for the Intel 330-series SSD to drop below $1/GB, but I have the need for two SSDs - one for my laptop which has space for two hard drives and one for my workstation.  I figured what the heck, buy one now, and when the Intel SSD goes on sale, I'd pick it up then. So I jumped on Kingston Hyper X, because it came as a kit for mounting in a 3.5" drive space -- something I'd need for a desktop.

And with a coupon, it cost $90 (now expired).

On Newegg, it has just 9% 1- and 2-egg ratings (a good thing), and the entire line of Kingston Hyper X has very high ratings across the board.  I hope this means it won't die on me, or come DOA.  Fingers crossed, both hands; toes crossed too.
