recommended for vista is a minimum of 40 GB

Today's subliminal thought is: 'Calm down ... it's only ones and zeros.'

Minimum supported system requirements

I'm sure you are aware "Minimum" requirements for anything computer related is arguably never recommended, so you better start looking at purchasing not just a secondary HDD, but likely a full system upgrade - if you are really serious about running Vista.

I run Vista Ultimate on a 30GB partition and including Office 2007 plus some other software, and it's so far only taken up 15Gb
