I'm also getting less enthusiastic about new gadgets. I'm noticing that my desire for hardware updates is getting further and further apart.

That might be because I'm getting older, or because the difference from one generation to the next is less impressive than it used to be, or both...

But SSD, yes, that's one development I wouldn't want to be without. The speed up is incredible. I'm thinking of retrofitting my "ancient" laptop with one.
