Okay, so as I've been complaining to (some of) you lately, my laptop is starting to show its age. It's still lightning fast and a complete beast in all regards save one: disk space.
Yeah, I have 80GB of disk space. I thought it was enough. Honestly, it is enough. Right now, after performing a pretty thorough clean-up of what I need and don't need, I've got 12GB left of space. Now, normally, I'd go 12GB! Great! That's enough to last me through another year, no problem!
...I need to upgrade to either XP Professional or Vista Professional for BC. Because they suck like that. Now, I could upgrade to XP Professional (and have about 2GB of space left over, which means I can't even finish screencapping Elisabeth). Alternatively, instead of paying $150 for 2002's technology, I could pay $200 for this year's technology and get Vista Ultimate. ...But I'd need 25GB of free space to upgrade to Vista Home, let alone Ultimate.
This sucks.
