"Is Windows *still* treating separate physical drives as logically separate?"
Big fucking deal, so what. Now go read up on NTFS mount points and stop being a trolling retard:

Get the 64GB V+ version
Get the 64GB V+ version (Kingston SNV225-S2/64GB). It costs £109 (just £9 more than the normal 64GB version). Its write speed is 140GB/sec and its read speed is 220MB/s - much faster!
Get the 64GB version
Get the 64GB version (Kingston SSDNow V-Series 64GB Solid State Drive (SSD). It costs £100 (ie £25 extra than the 40GB version) and its write speed is 80GB/sec (ie twice as fast). It costs a little extra but it solves all the shortcomings of the 40GB version.http://www.reghardware.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/thumb_down_32.png
2 drives in a laptop...
i have an acer 5230E here, and it contains two SATA ports, one for the HDD and one for the DVDRW drive.
Should be possible to reroute the wiring internally and mount a second SATA drive elsewhere in the case at the cost of the DVD (no biggie, use an external)
:)

Apple was (and is) free to use it under the terms of the CDDL, as is anyone. I can only guess that they wanted different terms, probibly a patent indemnification, which sun would not give them. Of course this is all speculation, I was not party to these discussions, if they occered.

It is true that you could build your own kernel with it. The conflicting clauses only come into force when you try to redistribute.
You could also use a GPL "shim" like nvidia does (although I have heard questions about if this really gets you around the redistribution requirements of the GPL).
There is also the possiblity of a clean-room implementation. Get just the on-disk format and independently write code to handle the format.
