Never argue with an idiot, he'll drag you down to his level, and beat you with experience.

What's the point in 120GB to 250GB? You may as well so it properly and get a 500GB drive in there. What do you need the space for on a laptop anyway? I'm probably going to be using 50GB or less out of 160GB on this MacBook for it's life time as I do all of my storage on my desktop. The only reason I'd ever upgrade the HDD in a laptop would be for performance, which is why I'd get a 7200rpm 500GB drive.My Mac:

I want to store photos, music and video on it because I'm sad enough to take my laptop with me when I go on holiday. What I would like is something that keeps my computer and Mac's music collection in sync but thats a pain in the ass :/
Also, I have STEAM under XP on Bootcamp and thats like 40GB.
