Preferable one 256GB or more

Check out newegg.com, they have some good SSD deals right now.

Thanks, I saw them. Most of the deals are for OCZs which people seem to warn against

I'm perfectly happy with my OCZ Vertex3, 256 GB, as a boot drive. It smokes everything else I've ever used for a boot drive, including a WD Velociraptor.

I've got a Crucial M4 in my desktop I'm happy with.  I really want to replace my laptop drive now.

Built a comp for the parental units recently, using a OCZ Vertex 4 128 GB.  Ran with it because of the good reviews, best in its class on all points, capacity vs performance vs price.  

Running AS SSD Bench several times, it delivers read and write speeds as advertized. all for $99 from Newegg.    

Im happy with the results. I did a lot of research etc, couldn't find anyone having issues with the current gen OCZ's. I know several manf. had issues with previous generations of SSD's.

Windows 7 Home premium boots to desk top in 8 seconds.  Huge difference from a platter drive.

OCZ is under 35 indictments right now.

It won't be around for long.

Micron/Crucial are good to go.
