ROTFL. I have an XP VM with 30 gigs and it has about 15 gigs free. I was worried about that small amount. 1 gig free would make me nervous. I have a 7200 RPM laptop drive with 100 gigs in an external case, USB 2.0 interface. I thought I would put whatever I use on that. I like to work on my laptop and haul stuff around, and I want the VM to be portable between host machines. John W.
