Dell To Offer 128GB SSD As $600 Upgrade Across Notebook Lines

Dell is full of upgrades today. Alongside the Multi-Touch functionality added to their Latitude XT, Dell is announcing that the Latitude, XPS, Precision, and Alienware lines will all have a 128GB SSD as a $600 option. Starting tomorrow, Dell customers can add 128GB’s of Solid State goodness to their orders.

For reference, the same $600 upgrade option last year only netted a 32GB SSD. SSD technology seems to be coming down in price with the recent reduction of the SSD equipped MacBook Air and the announcement of Samsung’s 64GB, 128GB, and soon-to-be-released 256GB SSD drives utilizing next generation MLC which offers better power management as well as increased performance.
