Hi muggers

Im amazed to hear that there are now 1TB SSD's available for laptops and it is 
great to hear that they make a big difference for people who are using MBPros 
etc!?

Are these expensive to buy and install? Would this be a useful way to improve 
overall efficiency and speed of my MBPro (for example using PS6 and Lightroom) 
as well as installing Mavericks on to it?

I had raised the issue of upgrading my present system (MBPRo 15, OSX 10.6.8 
with 8gb Ram) with the group and Ronni had mentioned I could upgrade to 
Mavericks, but just havnt had time to do much at all.

Best regards

Chris
