Because subprocess doesn't use the shell (which is what expands the tilde to the invoking user's home directory). I recommend using os.path.join and os.environ anyway.
p = subprocess.Popen(['du', '-sh', os.path.join(os.environ['home'], '.Trash')], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) -- CPython 3.2.2 | Windows NT 6.1.7601.17640 | Thunderbird 7.0 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
