To SSD or not to SSD?

Hi everybody,

I recently put an SSD in my laptop.  It helped.  A LOT.  It now boots in a minute or less, and comes back from sleeping in 10 seconds flat.  Now, I'm using Ubuntu instead of windows, so I don't know how it will work for that.  I heard today that it's kind of bad for longevity (only a certain number of writes before the flash memory is kaput?)  Anybody know about this?  If you know anything, let me know.  I want to plan on having a contingency for when mine dies :(
