Yup, even the tcc compiler I have is arounf 2MB compressed too...:(

Yes.20GB is the standard now.....Why is it that no matter how much HDD
space you have to start with, it allways isn't enough...:(

To solve this problem I am going to buy a cd-writer since CD-R's are
allways cheaper than the equivalent MB in HDD prices, and write all the
archives etc to the CD's and free up the HDD space...

Best Wishes,
Grendel
