Heh.. lots ;)  I've gone through a few 1gb hard drives with my GS over 
the past year or two.  Mega audio & video files and near mirrors of big 
FTP sites... awesome for big .qwk packets.  I get a lot of use out of my 
video digitizer card, microphone, and stereo sound card.

Eie... 105mb not full?  That's beyond me: I have several ~100mb 
partitions on the drive overfilling with files.

I wish I had your fortune.  I only hope this isn't related to the newer 
3.01F ROM chips in my RamFAST that I've had for months now.  It seems to 
me that ever since I purchased that card I've been having a nightmare 
with files... mostly on HFS volumes.
