It's reporting the disk space usage in 512-byte blocks by default, but there
are options to change this to report in megabytes, gigabytes, etc. See the

Jason,
Interesting. Haven't used that one before. Thanks for the info. What is the
command actually reporting? I tried it on a folder on my Desktop and it
returned "40806224 /Users/Me/Desktop/Folder_name" whereas the Finder's Get Info
window returns 20.89 GB.

Alex,
Between the System and Library files and your Applications, you likely use 15
to 20 GB. So, add that to your 18 GB of the user account plus the 15 GB of
partition for Windows, you're getting pretty tight. There's an app I've used
fairly often called Disk Inventory X that will go through
