Yeah I bought an OCZ 60GB Vertex I think it was back in about 2011 when they first came out.  OCZ doesn't even exist now.
It cost me $251 which was about $4 per GB.  Now-a-days it's the other way round and then some...You can easily buy at TB SSD for $160 ish, (or so a very fast look on PriceSpy tells me).  Anyway at the time it was by FAR the best improvement to the Laptop I owed then.  And after that I was a real convert and changed a lot of peoples machines to SSD.  As we know the difference between even a Sata 2 SSD and a 7200 mechanical HDD is about a factor of 3x faster.  And they're much faster with SATA 3 etc. 
Great invention.
