SSD with win7 is definitely worthwhile
just a note though try to get MLC SSD that are supports GC or Trim. ie: Intel G2 or Indilinx

I'm not certain if Samsung's unit support GC or Trim yet.
testing?

I just got myself the Intel G2 80 + Win7 Pro. Definitely thumbs up. As they say, the best upgrade you can give your computer right now. And my system is a 2 year old Q6600

From my understanding of reviews out in the wild, Intel is the way to go, and the price difference is not that great either.

I have SSD 256 GB on my laptop - I upgraded about 6 to 7 months ago. I must say that my SSD is definitely worth it (I got it for a good price with my laptop) - the performance boost and the transfer speed is so much better compared to SATA drive.

I should also mention that I noticed the transfer speed is probably 5 times better when I transfer data to and fro an external hard drive.
