You're right for the most part. The only thing I disagree with you is the scattering of data on the SSD. I like it as it is because the fact that OSX stores data starting at the beginning of each partition provides me with the opportunity to resize my partitions on the fly without any risky third-party apps.
ill always run windows machines i think
and wont get any SSD drives for a while. ive heard they are worse [and far more expensive, with far less capacity [as yet]
ill stick with my dell that i have fitted with 2x500gb HDD
its too old to play any new games but it runs 2 full HD monitors fine
macs are just too expensive for me and i do like windows [and not a fan of apple in general really]
your right about the capacity they tend to be more expensive for lower capacity.
But they are far far better than magnetic disk drives, they are faster at retrieving data, they don't loose data if you drop them and you don't need to worry about them becoming fragmented so no need to defrag ever.
In fact they need to change the file system really so it scatters blocks of data across them rather than storing them in an order like the NTFS system.
