	When the current smallest IDE drive you can purchase is 15 or 20 GB
- yeah, it's no big deal.  Amazingly, there are many Linux users who don't
want to screw with a system for 2 days after a 75MB install to get it to a
reasonably functional state (GUI, ability to compile, work on an "office"
doc, print) - they actually want to do things on it right away.
	The current (Gnome, KDE), XFree, OpenOffice, CUPS, and kernel source
total _well_ over 250MB - I don't why 400MB is such a "bloated number".
