OK, so I have my old iBook G3 700 and it has a dead HD. I am thinking of putting a solid state drive in it once the prices come down a bit. It came with a 40GB drive in it, so even going to a 64 GB SSD would be an upgrade. The question is, has anyone done this yet? If so, what is your feedback.

After reading a bit up on the subject, I do not really see a down side. I am providing the following links for others interested in the subject.

The following has a direct comparison to traditional notebook drives:
