Would the SSD be heavier? Just purchased a new macbook pro 15" and was curious to know as well and found this thread. My anti glare with 250gb SSD weighs in at 5 lb 5 oz. Wonder how people are getting an even 5lbs.

SSD's are much lighter than HDD's. The first time I held an SSD in my hand I was shocked at how light it was.

Yeah that is what I thought as well. Regardless, it's still a very light machine, but definitely not seeing a 0.5 lb reduction in weight.
