What, and carry an extra kilo everyhwere too? That's crazy talk! IIRC Macbook can use SSD but doesn't boot off the SSD.

No. They can boot off of an SSD. You just replace the existing HD.

yes it can, it is even a standard option in the store (but it makes the thing a lot more expensive)

The new(-est) Macbook Pros have an option to upgrade to a 128G SSD for $200, which next to the base price of a higher end model is pretty appealing (unless you need tons of space).
