*shrug* Flash is silent, low-power, and reasonably fast to access.
Microdrives aren't. OTOH, microdrives are real hard disks and so don't
suffer from the limited number of writes that flash does.

Will you want a swap partition? If so, you'll need a microdrive. (Swapping
to flash will kill it very quickly.) Otherwise, I'd say get flash.
