20G enough? Not in my world.
It's not just pr0n, mp3's, or illegal downloads that take up space now a days and there is no way a 20gig HD is enough, for most users I know any way.
Using Windows XP, it takes up 10gig alone and that's down from the install it came from Dell with as I immediately get rid of Remote assistance as well as their "free" spyware/virus stuff and use my own. then there's the swap, e-mail program and browser because if you're smart you are not using IE or Outlook. Then there is the usual anti virus, anti spyware, firewall.....
Heck I'm an avid computer games player, work in the industry as well, and just one of my current MMOs takes up 27gig (Age of Conan), EQ2 is another 30ish (mind you there are screen shots), and the smallest of them all is a toss up between Guild Wars, Imperial Wars and Anarchy Online, which take up about 3gig each so there's another 9gig there. Then there are the stand alone games, plus the ones sent to me to review that I install, play, report on then delete. For gamers HD space is essential because they aren't just running these games either they are also running things like talk programs to arrange raids on with their teams, damage calculators, and other add ons to enhance their game experience. I know a few are going to welcome more space.
