X300 with 120GB HD available

Just noticed that a Swiss University Website with special Lenovo offers for student is selling a version with a 5400 - 120 HD. It runs under the label 569D834.

Unfortunately, the price difference between the SSD version at CHF 3055 and the HD version at CHF 2627 is not very big. (The dollar being about 1:1 with the Swiss Franc, now even lower for the first time in history, but that's another story)

At least these prices seem to imply that the SSD is not as expensive as everybody claims. Or maybe the HD is just pretty expensive, too.
