[QUOTE="Baboonanza, post: 633440, member: 101901"] 1- A decent SSD is going to be about 5x faster than a CF card. A 7200rpm HDD might be be faster. Plus if you wanted Windows 7 you'd need at least a 30GB one, so I'm not even sure it would save you money. I'd recommend the Intel 40-V SSD if you go down that road. 2- The RC candidates (latest is 5) are actually very stable, I run RC3. And there will be a final veriosn 1.1.0 in a few weeks AFAIK. You can always CloneZilla your drive before testing it. If you want a seamless & quick startup you just need to hibernate it, that way you [I]might[/I] be able to wake it with the remote too. I've had some problems with TV and hibernate (though there are ways round this), but if you're looking at XBMC then rpesumably you don't want TV anyway. [/QUOTE]
