My comp:
40gb
160gb
250gb

My TiVo:
40gb

GF's comp:
80gb

Dell Digital Jukebox:
20gb

GF's laptop:

Some people like to setup a file server for the whole house LAN and stream movies, ect. For example, It's kind of cool having a library of DVDs on HDD that you can access from your notebook while BBQing on the patio :)
