[thelist] [OT] Tech break down needed...

[Tris]

I'm specing up a new laptop...
Dell are offering a 32Gb solid state drive as a hard drive option.
Can anyone tell me why I'd want this?
(I've got a 160Gb WEstern digital that's small and USB powered, so I
could carry that with me, but ) it strikes me as silly to limit the
laptop to 32Gb...

What am I missing?
