Being away from home to work as expat in other countries has its many advantages and disadvantages. First, you get to see and live on other cities; knowing their culture, adapting to their customs as well as tasting their own unique delicacies. However, the downside would be how to constantly communicate with your loved ones to wipe away the loneliness of being away, to have the feeling of being constantly with them specifically on special occasions. Although we have the email which is the quickest way to be in touch with them as compared to snail mail, it still does not compete with talking and hearing their voices.

If your buying a laptop in 2008 then it’s a good idea to look at SSD (Solid State Disk) options as they have many benefits, but as soon as you add this to a laptop one thing changes right away and that’s price. SSD’s are still a lot of money compared to normal hard drives, maybe they will come down in 2009, but for now expect to pay more money for this little extra.
Earlier today peter reported about the upcoming Toshiba Portege R500 12Q that will come with a 128GB SSD drive and it also features a dual-layer DVD writer, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, 12.1-inch LED-backlit display and a Core 2 Duo ULV U7700 processor. There is no word on price yet, but again we can expect it to be more than it’s competitor with a normal hard drive.
Will consumers make the move to SSD now or will most people wait until the price crashes, I have always been one to buy early on and also one that pays the price for it. While prices have come down a little, this time I am waiting it out and they may be some time yet.
Do you own a laptop with SSD and if not would you wait until the price comes down a lot or pay a premium now?
