Seriously considering to get SSD. My current MB don't support trim, would that be a problem?

OCZ Vertex 2.. seems to be that the 25nm is slower in writing compared to the 34nm nand size of the same version. And they do it secretly changing from 34nm to 25nm. With the reviews already out on the 34nm version, everybody bought it thinking it will be the same thing with the same result. But they reported slower writing speeds, and apparently it's because of the 25nm nand size being slower, and have less life in it too compared to 34nm.

They're now offering to those that bought the drive with the 25nm nand flash to return the drive back to them and get credit and they have to topup a bit more if they want to get the 34nm version. Funny eh..

My laptop's HDD died I think. 40gb is cheap enough for me to splurge. Already using Intel 320 on my PC and I don't think I can go back to using hdd again. Is 40gb enough for win7 64bit, and some office programs(MS Office and maybe Photoshop?)?
