I had almost the same experience. I had a 2007 MacBook Pro and one day dumped Firefox for Chrome. the difference was amazing.
I eventually did upgrade to a 2010 MacBook Pro/8GB/SSD. It came put to just under $3k after taxes. Expensive, yes. But the speed difference is amazing. It completely changed my work and productivity. Using a computer 8+ hours a day, it is easy to forget how much time you loose a day/week/month waiting on app to load, files to open, etc. The 2010 MBP (with SSD) is the nicest machine I've ever worke with.
