yes ... quite dissapointing.
you will feel the SSD difference in a system when the harddrive is the bottleneck. i.e. 5400rpm OS drives. a system loaded with crapware. like above said, it depends on how you are using your system. to me, the SSD is worth every penny on the laptop, not so much on the desktop at home.
and the price difference in ram is so minimal.... you will need ddr3 ram anyways. 2 sticks of 4gb is not even 100 bux. same goes with a good cpu cooler and extra fans.
