Hey Mat, I'm thinking an SSD-performance-effect would depend on which 
implementation of ltsp you are thinking: thin client, localapps, fat client.  
However, I can't answer but this would help frame the problem.  I would guess 
the smallest benefit would be with fat clients.  Would be interesting hearing 
some test results…
