Probably a video file I captured from a camcorder back in the summer and haven't bothered to do anything with it yet (i.e., compress it). 3.3GB I believe.

160gb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????

Not on this PC, but on my central fserve. The switch stack is going NUTS feeding it to two editboxen which are slicing it for scene divisions now. The file will only survive the next couple hours, after it's been chopped up, it'll be 160gb of much smaller files (probably about 1600 of them)

I'd grab a dirlist screenshot, but the single network interface on that box is saturated and SSH lags worse than it does over dialup.

I just zipped the entire contents of my hard drive into one file just so I could claim that I have a 150 GB file.


Not really, I just wanted a bigger e-wang :(

Similar thing, but I have probably more along the lines for 80BG of unedited video and about 30GB of edited video which needs to be compressed and put onto DVD's.
