Seek times, throughput, and CPU utilization are were I made my decisions.

You're certainly correct about this, as well. I've been particularly frustrated by our wholesaler trying to sell us 1.4GHz systems with 5400RPM WD drives in them. Yet, I do believe a lot of people are buying them. It just seems stupid to me.
