Second, after fitting the drive and booting, go to System Prefs > Startup Disk, and select the SSD and click reboot. Non Apple supplied/certified SSD's won't be given Trim support by the OS, so this little app (free to download and run, pay for upgrade options) will give you that. Two tips though - go to and install Trim Enabler. I just cloned my original drive using SuperDuper and then physically swapped them in the machine.
Simple enough to fit - mine was a simple disk swap.
Boot time is down from 2+ mins to 30-40 seconds (button to usable app), and apps, like yours, are almost instant (even iPhoto and iMovie, both of which were previously long to start up with the original HDD inside) Not tried XP in VMWare yet though. I echo you - I just put a 480gb SSD (Crucial M500) in my 2008 MBP, and it's made it so much more useable.
