SSDs are sweet. I just got a 13" MBP 2.7Ghz w/ a 128GB SSD. It's a screaming machine. Everything works instantly and it makes my older 2.4 Ghz MBP look like a sloth. In my opinion it's totally worth it. I spend a lot of time on a computer.

However, if you want a bigger drive than 128GB, I'd get a hybrid drive. You can get a 500GB hybrid drive for around $100. You get lots of space and I've heard they get around 80% of the performance gain of an SSD.

Enjoy the new laptop!
