I'm not 100% sure but from the pictures, the SSD connector looks to be a little narrower than a standard MiniPCI-E port. If it was indeed the correct size, the SSD would be about as long as a desktop DDR2 DIMM.

It's likely that we'll see upgrades from Runcore and other aftermarket SSD manufacturers, but 256GB is about the largest you can get these days anyway.

How long is a piece of string?

Probably want to be a bit more specific if you are expecting answers.

The old MBA with the 1.8" HDD is damn slow, I'd stay clear of it.

Curious here...
Is the 2.66 GHz Mac Mini faster or slower then the 1.4GHz MBA?

Mac Mini is faster. MBA is ULV.

I'm waiting to hear someone said "Aww man, my pendrive is bigger space than your 64GB SSD!"

Your pendrive isn't nearly as fast though. smile.gif

Re XP on a Mac, I had audio issues with my MBP on both XP and Vista via Bootcamp. During music playback you would hear pops and clicks at random. Tried different drivers and it didn't help. No problems with Win 7, other than the fact 2 finger scrolling is still crap in Windows just as it previously was.

I had my original battery replaced under warranty for loss of charge. The replacement battery Apple so kindly sent me had scratches on it. I did the full discharge recharge once a month, it now says "Service Battery" and my battery only has 8 cycles on it.

About this Mac > More info > Power

Ah my cycle count is actually 14 now. Odd, I haven't unplugged it from power for about 3 months.
