I bought my first Intel 80GB 2 years ago after 6 months of waiting for the price to drop. I think I paid $250, I bought the upgraded model last year for about $100 after sale, rebate, & a 50% off $40 Newegg gift card. I'd stay away from the OCZ stuff, I've seen a lot of complaints about their quality & customer service taking a slide the last couple years. Pity, they used to be top notch. I haven't had any problems with my drives, Intel isn't the cheapest, but I think they're by far the best.
My son & I play MMOs during the winter & my new machine was so much faster loading, I had to buy another for my old gaming rig so I'm not always waiting for him. In all my years of building & upgrading gaming PCs, I can say that SSDs are the biggest noticeable upgrade. Nothing else has been so obvious. I have a ongoing hate hate relationship with apple & their products, I hate being forced to use them.
