For SSDs to be even considered to be becoming mainstream, they would at maximum have to be only twice as expensive, and offering identical, or very similar capacity.
Yeah but most people are not gamers... and 120GB is ok for them. They do still run out, but not like us.

But I dont think we will see a viable, cheap gaming SSD that is competitive with the speed of the smaller business and laptop designed SSD models for a while.
