Id say 60 / 64Gb.

By the time you install your OS / Adobe Suite / MS Office etc, it soon swallows up those Gbs.

For the sake of a few $ you can get a 6x drive and never have to worry about it.

I am planning on a Samsung 830 series 64 GB. I am gonna install Windows, Sony Vegas, Office, Norton 360 and some basic applications. Maybe 1 game, but really an SSD just makes load times smaller, it doesn't up your frames per second. I don't mind waiting 10 seconds for a game to load a level or something. As long as the work-intensive stuff is good, then I'm good.
