Snow Leopard DOUBLES your drive capacity(!)

[petemwah]

I've got a 500gb drive in my MacBook, check out what comes up when i quick-view my home folder, apparrently Snow Leopard has got a new feature of doubling your disk space now! Anyone else discovered this 'feature'? If only it were true...

*EDIT*

OK, do ignore this thread! I've just realised it's prob because I'm running file-vault so it's using a disk image for my user folder! Sorry for the excitable 'bug report'!

They do display file sizes differently in SL, maybe it's related?

I knew before coming in it couldn't be true.. but greed tempted me in to have a look

hmm interesting! could anyone here with 10.5 and filevault quick-view their home folder and see if the size is inaccurate on theirs?
