Me - I reckon, for XP.. 10GB minimum - but better calculations are....
5GB for the OS,
1GB working space for the paging file ( or memory size if larger, unless
pagefile size is limited
Memory size for 'hiber.sys file if you have not removed Hibernate from the
available closedown options
3GB per user
5GB for a DVD drive's software workspace
5GB more if it's a DL DVD
5GB or 10GB if you are going to have a DVD 'drive' image on the OS drive
5GB for Goback and the other 'update backout facilities if you are going to
use them - they're gonna eat space as they keep 'restore image filesets'
What was it that Gates said about home users never needing more than
256mb of storage?
