dual booting. I don't get dual booting let alone when you don't have much disk space. I usually grow a virtual machine as needed and like the utility of a VM or it being sand boxed.

For me, the 256GB is about right for how much media I tend to work with on the SSD itself, but yeah, I do think that a VM might be a better option in most cases. I'm planning on removing the DVD drive and installing a 1TB spindle drive in its place for additional storage. Don't remember when was the last time I actually used a CD or DVD for anything.

Hmmm..... Didn't stop me from ordering another one today. I'm getting my wife a white one.
I don't play games and for what I do the new phone has been absolutely superb. Performance of the radios, speed, weight and size have been great.
Some of my favorite apps have had good updates that make me glad I got it.
If you're not a gamer that has to do what this guy's doing you get an an otherwise awesome display. I'm looking forward to seeing the new glued to glass the iMac will have in a few weeks, and still want a Retina laptop when the software catches up.
The display quality Apple's getting and solid state storage to an IT person are addictive.

I just got a Qualcomm based S4 to install Cyanogenmod on it (the Exynos based one sucks terribly). Runs beautifully, but I do sorta' wish I had waited for the coming Nexus 5. Looks to be a beast. I was sad that the campaign for the Ubuntu Phone didn't work out, but it's not totally dead.
