I see that some solid state IDE "hard drives" [smallish, expensive, shockproof] are available.

Does anyone have experience with them?

Price? Speed? Boot times? (On what OS/comp?)

Just curious.
- Investigating static RAM market.
- Wonder if HD substitution is any closer now than 15 years ago.
- Think it ain't.

TIA!
