HP updates Compaq DC7800 with optional 16GB SSD

HP Compaq DC7800 Ultra-Slim PC

HP has announced an update to their ultra-slim line of desktops, now offering the option to include SSD storage. The Compaq DC7800 is currently available and pricing begins at just $729, however the optional 16GB SSD will run you an extra $328, which is almost half the price of the computer itself. The DC7800 comes standard with a 80GB 7200 rpm hard drive with an additional option to add a 160GB 7200 rpm hard drive for an additional $16.

While SSD storage seems like a nice option, at this point I would be more willing to spend the extra money if I were purchasing a laptop. Is SSD storage on a desktop really worth the premium price that it currently demands?
