[QUOTE="XJ-linux, post: 1108792, member: 33722"] A tick over 8GB including iLife, if you skip the printer drivers, Xcode and extra languages. I have a 128GB and still have about 40GB free after 24GB of iTunes music/video, 14GB of iPhoto and small SUSE11 and Win7 VM's. I looked into a 40GB for my Mini "server", but decided it was just too tight when figuring in swap, sleep and temp file spaces. 60GB was my magic number for the Mini's applications, binaries, etc. with an external 1TB drive for backups, music/video/photos and documents.
