Um... I think your poll is a little too optimistic. To the best of my knowledge most computers still have HD's in the 10's rather than 100's of gigabytes.

My computer has a 7.6 GB HD. The other, more recent, computer we have at home has a 30GB HD.

This poll is very wierdly scaled . Seeing as how close to 90% have below 150 GB, perhaps a different scaling would have been better .

Nancy Drew!

I have 60 gig, not even half full since I usually remove games (not their saves) from my hard drive when I am not playing them... just for general house keeping. Also, with a good connection I have no need to download porn.

Why did the poll stop at fifty? I have a 20 gigger and surely that's not obsolete yet.

I have all of my HDDs encased in mobile Racks,
so I am able to change them within Seconds

At the Moment it is a 80 GB HDD with Win Me
(which is why I chose less than 50GB++)

But I also have some other HDDs,
one with 20 GB, where IŽll install my new Linux-System
several with less than 10 GB (on one of them resides my old Linux-System)
and another, still unused one with 60 GB

I don't know many people with less than 40 GB HDs, and since this is a computer related site I thought most people here had larger than 50 GB HDs...

That's another plus when you're gay, you can watch the same porn together and no one complains.

That's pretty large for a laptop, so much so that it wouldn't fit in the chassis properly.

Get used to it sitting by itself somewhere.
