LOL  I knew someone would say buy a new one.
The laptop is more thand 18 months old.

I have:
1.86 GB Music
4.5        Pics and
8.29      Videos.

I have a 300 GB Harddrive
The laptop is 80.1 GB with 2.52 GB free. 

I know about moving things. 
I ran defrag for the first time the other night.  That's something Doug always did.  

I've gotten into making How To Videos so that's what started eating my space.
How to pack your YFlyer sailboat for travel.
How to fix you jib halyard.   and more.

I was thinkin' Mike Young recorded 6 CD in some condensed mode to get them all on one CD.
I'll check with him about condensing audio .wav and .mp3 - but I only have less than 2 GB of that.

I'll move some things and defrag again.
Is there anything else I should do?
I didn't watch Doug very closely when he did the hardware maintenance stuff.

Thanks for the feedback
Dorita

Buy a new one with a bigger hard drive :-) he he

 

No seriously, Burn to DVD (2 copies, one for safe keeping), and/or External Sata Hard Drive for under $200 that works on firewire (ieee 1394), USB 2.0, and esata.

 

Father-in-law, Al, back in hospital again... so my time is chaotic.

Hey there Network Buddies
What do you do when your laptop gets full
I know I have x gig of pics
                  y gig of videos
                  z gig of music
Do any of you have an ipod or mp3 player. I don't YET.
What can you tell me about space and diff between .wav and .mp3
I just used a lot of space with my Maui pics including swiming with
the turtles.
My Bro and his wife asked his 2 sisters to go to Maui with them on
their 10 yr wedding anniversary.
All is well. Mom & Dad's big goal was for us to all stay friends.
It was a great trip and we are well bonded

So tell me about House Cleaning on a Laptop and what you guys do.

Aloah
