Wishlist : A SSD replacement for my laptop (HDD)

After much stumbling through youtube, i'm now so so so desperate to do something bout the performance of my notebook here.

Currently this notebook is aged 10 years old.
Asus L2000 p4m 1.68ghz 256mb ram with ati m radeon m7
with a real slow IDE harddrive .

The boot time for xp on it including loading mcafee is around 10 mins.(yes its painfully slow and i had to bear with it)

I could imagine how this pice of shit would load if i replace it with a 60gb ssd from samsung . Perhaps i could even cut the boot time to a quarter.

I've seen people booted a clean xp under 6 seconds. No joke.

The thing is , installing an 60gb SSD is like installing another 60gb of RAM to ut PC which translates to zero waiting states and no more seek times and hell no more HDD crashes. (SSD loads my friend's desktop adobe photoshop cs4 under 2 seconds)

MOst of the time you sit and wait for the PC to load something , please, do not ever blame it on slow processors, the stupid operating system, or the lack of ram (which needs disk swapping which in turns needs the slow HDD), its all caused by the darn slow HDD itself tryin to rip data off and on the drive. And that costs a lots of time.
And most of the time the processor is also left waiting there (read 0% utilization) until it has something to process after the HDD finshed it's loading. That's why people introduced the RAM ,which is never enough.

Yeah you see Core i7 yada yada yada with its so called ddr3, i think its all bullshit cuz they're gona run as slow as my PC as long as it's still running on a stupid HDD.

Win 7 boots 80% faster on SSD computers. Proven. Seen. Even touched.

I just hope the price of SSD would tumble soon, i wanna get my hands on those foxy things, and sooner or later im gonna be loading my DoTa in less than 10 secs, and that to impress my friends, although im still running a vintage spec pc.(ITS ALL ABOUT THE HDD)

64gb would be enuf, i will just use my 320gb sandisk ext. HDD to store my media, and 64gb to solely run apps on the comp . Yeah, talk about being effective and effiecient.

Think bout it . DIsk defragmentation? This term will be erased forever as soon as SSD dominates.
