Which OCZ drive would you buy if they're the same price?
for same price, buy OCZ AGT3 or VTX3 SSD?

Thanks guys. The wife has been saying her computer is a bit slow; figured an SSD would change her mind. She's the epitome of a minimalist user; she has a 120GB drive in her computer, 88GB still free. A 60GB Vertex should do fine. All she does is email, browsing, and a bit of light online gaming (Hangaroo, Mah Jong, Word Find, etc.)
I asked her a while back if she would like to learn to edit photos and stuff. She said that's what she has me for.....
