Put the X25 G2 in my 2.53 June09 MBP today, clean Leopard install (which took 14 minutes after install disc verification). Even after installing many applications I got a full restart (click to desktop) in 26 seconds and a full startup in 17 seconds. This is by far the best computer upgrade I have ever done and/or seen, HIGHLY recommended.
 
Your basing it being the best upgrade on a fast install and reboot?
Anything about functionality that you like?
 
my CPU heavy Music applications are loading in 1/3 the time, some plugins are seriously 5x+ faster with loading all their small audio sample files, CPU usage is noticeably lower. Opening files is ridiculously fast, so no I am not just basing it on boot time. That is just the biggest laughing matter to me of all the improvements. I mean come on, 26 second full restart?
