Can you tell me what the difference between your 32 gb solid state hard drive and my 160 gb hard drive is?

Solid State is...........?
The way I understand it, solid state drives have no moving parts, therefore greatly reducing the risk of data loss by mechanical failure. I added an 8 gig SDHC card to this to store my books, so I don't take up the hard drive space remaining after the operating system install and necessary software.

You've got the rest of it right... it swivels into tablet configuration, and it is a touch screen, which comes in really handy when it's in tablet mode. And I get about 10 - 12 hours battery life, which impresses the heck out of me, considering it is advertised at 5 hours.
