The XP Home Netbook Edition licensing is why you can only get a 16gb SSD with the Mini 9. Microsoft also limits a Mini 9 with XP to 1gb RAM. Heck, since Linux is Open Source, you can order the Ubuntu Mini 9 with a 32gb SSD hard drive and 2gb RAM. Microsoft licensing limits you to half the capacity. Bastards!

Of course, if you have self control this wouldnt be a problem. I have yet to really use the 8gb SD cards I got.

Still, I wont bitch when 32GB become standard on netbooks as long as we get away from HD.
100bucks is not that much of a price for it to drop. By the summer the 64,80, 100GB will be introduced and 32 will be the new 8.

We need however better optimization for SSD drives.
