box.com - 50GB (!)

more interestingly, if you sign up using an email address that isn't from one 
of the major providers (e.g. your personal vanity domain), box.com assumes 
you're an organization, and gives you unlimited user accounts (not sure what 
the actual limit is, but I've created up to a couple dozen accounts for 
testing). This presents an interesting possibility of a FUSE-type "RAID" of 
Box.com accounts to present a single much larger virtual disk drive, striped 
across accounts.

also, for those who have mentioned security and encryption as concerns (rightly 
so), I strongly recommend you check out SpiderOak - its zero-knowledge design 
and engineering are unparalleled in any other cloud storage provider I've seen 
yet (and unlike Dropbox and most of the rest, SpiderOak will back up arbitrary 
files and directories - you don't have to copy the stuff you want to back up to 
a particular designated folder).
