I compared the boot up and shut down times on my 4 year old 7200rpm drive to the new Kingston V100 SSD I just bought. The reason I didn't reinstall XP on this computer was because it would have straight wasted my time.Windows 7 in my experience doesn't boot any faster than XP did in a fresh install.; usually took longer. Also I used Windows 7 for 2 weeks before I did the speed test; so this was not fresh install performance. Since SSDs don't degrade in performance like regular HDDs then this is the speed you should expect even after months of use. (Programs running aside.) PS. I didn't cut anything like I said I would. I wasn't thinking when I said that, as it could skew the result. There is a very large difference in performance; I would recommend getting a SSD for your computer.
