I have nothing to add except that I would wait until there is SATA external drives. Without having to do anything extra. ESPECIALLY if you want to put an OS on it.

i got my sata drive an enclosure, which are harder to find than you'd think, but now im getting it filled up with 200gb of music
anyways i think my point was that you could save money getting a drive and enclosure
don't forget SATA>eSATA>firewire>USB

Well like Bleed said it's not recommended for OS because it would take too long to load up. But your not stupid (at least, I don't THINK you are), and your not considering using this for your OS, just to port shit around. Correct? Like, take it to school?
