There's a pretty significant difference in performance between an Intel 320 and the Revo drive he's talking about. Plus the 320 only supports SATA II
Better warranty and reliability (possibly) from the Intel though.
The 320 would make sense if it was priced a lot lower.

The crucial m4 256GB for $399 would be a better choice if trying to save some $$ on the SSD while staying above 200GB.
