I have windows 7 with an 120 GB SSD (500 mb/s read write, but i think it's limited to 346 or something because i have sata300 lol). It doesn't load in 4 seconds though? xD

Although from the moment i can see my desktop background i can click anything i want and it will start up in a few seconds. Photoshop is a nice way to see the improvement, it starts so damn fast compared to before.

Are these things ever going to go down in price because once you have one (also installed 2 games or something on it) you don't want to go back =p

They are already falling in price, although obviously the discount models will have poor performance and life time.

Windows 8 uses a better kernal (many new technologies) and is diesigned for mobile platforms so one can expect it to be slighly more light weight and faster.
