Replace HDD with a SSD
details
I'm thinking of opening this thing up and pop in an SSD in it, but which SSD is recommended, I get really annoyed of the spinning harddrive since I'm used to an SSD.
Is there any specific SSD:s that works better with Macs?

Since I was going to take out the CD and pop in the spinning drive into the CD slot 60-120 GB is more than sufficient, the best drive for the best money.

Movie/TV purchases missing from "Purchases" section of iTunes Store?
details
Has anyone else noticed that a lot of their movie/TV purchases are missing from the new Purchased section of the iTunes store? I have about 20 movies that I've accumulated in iTunes, mostly through the DVD+digital copy combos. Some of those movies appear in my purchases, but a lot do not. Of the ones that actually show up and have HD versions available, none have upgraded.

None of the TV shows I have purchased show up.

What gives?

What's the best laptop under $1000 for photo/video editing?
details
I'd like to stay PC if possible. I can't really afford the premiums on Mac systems. If it's a huge difference editing on a Mac then I might just pony up the extra benjamins to secure one. I'm quite familiar with both Win and OS X so user experience with one or the other isn't an issue.

Why would you buy a 13" MacBook Pro over the 13" MacBook Air?
details
Apple just refreshed their MacBook Pro line with some new CPUs and GPUs, but one thing that baffled me was the same 1280X800 display on the 13" MBP. Seems weird that the 13" Pro doesn't have a higher resolution option given that the MacBook Air currently has it.

Any thoughts on why Apple decided to do this? Outside of DVD fanatics, why would anyone want to buy the 13" Pro over the 13" Air?
