[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1238439"] robduckyworth is, broadly speaking, correct ... UNLESS that 82 gigs really fills up your HD. Then it most certainly WILL cause your MPB to run slowly. Just bear in mind that Mac OS X needs a *lot* of "elbow room" to do its thing efficiently. I'd recommend leaving *at least* 20GB free at all times. Keep an eye on your free space, do periodic (and by this I mean "every so often" -- as in perhaps bi-monthly) maintenance, don't fall for "anti-virus" scams and you should have smooth sailing.
