I am planning on switching over to SSD since my barracuda has been slow as hell lately. Would a 180gb SSD (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167151&Tpk=intel%20ssd%20335%20180gb) be sufficient or should I go for a 250gb (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147248)?

Any cons about having 2 systems on the same drive? I really can't afford 2 at the moment.
There is not that much difference between the cost of a 250Gb SSD and 2x120Gb SSD. Much better to use 2 - one for each OS than to put both on the same SSD. Having Win7/8 and OS X on same SSD is asking for update troubles in my experience, especially if you are doing a service pack update.
