I'm looking at purchasing a MacBook later, and keep switching back and forth.

I love the black one, and will probably end up buying it. I have an iMac now with 250GB of space, and I doubt I'm using 50...

I saw the black macbook has the same amount, how much of it do you find yourself actually using? What do you use it for?
 
I have the BlackBook 2.4 250GB HDD...

and I have 201GB available, after all my software, music, movies and the formatted & bundled software. I keep most of my music, movies and media/graphic projects on an external hard drive and transfer it as needed. My BlackBook is 2-days old! 😎
 
i have 780gb.
500 and 120 gb external drives
160 gb time machine
50 gb for bootcamp stuff
100 for files
100 and something for music (fat32 so can put on windows)
then in the 120
3 partitions for bootable discs
tiger
leapord
windows
the rest has music and files in fat32

on the 160 internal
got like 80 used

i filled up the 40GB on my toshiba, wasn't too difficult. still not sure what the hell is taking up all that space, there's about 16GB of music, i can't imagine there's over 20GB of programs, photos, documents, etc.

i'm using 29GB on my macbook, and i haven't moved my itunes library over yet. 6GB of TV and about 1.5GB of music, i have no freaking clue what the rest is!

Me too. Its a constant battle for me to maximize my 60G hard drive. I need to start running windows for work, and I'm dreading how mush space that will eat up. I'm thinking about upgrading my HD when I have the $
