I payed $85 for a 40gb vertex 2 which IMO is very reasonable considering the performance. Unfortunately my netbook is only Sata 150 so a good bit of the drives performance will be wasted.
Nice. I'm hoping that when the 25nm MLC drives launch prices will drop enough that I can afford to move all of my applications onto a SSD too. Until that happens I'll be sticking with a single SSD in both of my systems.
I LOVE these cans, picked(well had someone ship them up here) up a used pair, but they might as well be new. Highly recommend for anyone who likes rock/instrumental/vocal music. Lacking in bass though, and I can't use em with my all my pc fans on, but if you've got a quiet room they're amazing. Though for isolation, hip-hop, drum and bass, dubstep ect, the M-50s are far better.
I'm spending almost as much on headphones and accessories as I did on my pc. Though once I get some IEMs I'll be set for a decade. I can't see myself ever going back to ibuds now, everything sounds sooo much better with some good equipment, completely worth the price; but everyone I know seems to disagree...
