Sorry, I guess I should have been more specific.  I wasted 2+ GB, not 
8 GB.  The motherboard in my main machine has a limit of roughly 8 GB.  
(The BIOS doesn't quite support 8 GB correctly for some reasong, 
but will support in excess of 7 GB).  Thus, this is the limit I 
configured to.  Sorry, I should have mentioned that.  I got what I 
considered a deal on the 10 GB drive ($130 for a Maxtor OEM 10 GB, 
7200 RPM drive), so I went for that, knowing I probabally wouldn't be 
able to use all of it (until I upgrade my motherboard).  Hence, I'm 
wasting somewhat more than 2 GB, not 8 GB.
