Looking to pick up a SSD when W7 is released and I upgrade from RC1 so hopefully the 4 months will bring the prices down some more. My question tho, is with the limited space on most drives, what programs qualify to go on the main drive? For me it would be the following:

OS - W7
Productivity - MS Office 07
Adobe Reader
AIM
Driver Suites (ATI, Logitech, etc.)

What else would qualify to go on there?

If you get a 160GB SSD, you can stop worrying about it. And, if you really want to be worry free (and broke!), go for this bad boy:

SSD

I have a 30GB SSD. With some work with nLite, moving the virtual memory to another drive, and removing the hiberfile; I was able to get the Windows 7 install and drivers down to 7.6GB. With all my programs installed the total is now 14.1GB. My games are all installed on the raptor drive, and all my data is stored on other drives.
