And How much was it?

I would love to make my home machine faster.

A while back, about a month ago, TigerDirect.com had a sale of a 120 gb SSD for $89.00. Cheapest I've seen so I bought one. After installing Lion, restoring my email, and installing CS 5.5 I have used up 25 gb so I still have some free space. I'm going to put my old 500 gb SATA drive in a firewire external case to use to store downloads and documents, etc...

Dang, that is cheap. I was thinking that would be $300 or so.

newegg.com has an OCZ 120gb 3g SSD today for $104.99 with free shipping and a $15 mail-in rebate card. (They don't charge sales tax...at least for Illinois residents)
