Tip of The Week
Interested to know how much space you have left in your hard drive?Well, that's easy. Open the My Computer icon on your desktop (or under the Start menu for XP users) and right-click the drive you are curious about (for most people, this would be their C: drive, but this trick works with any drive). Select Properties from the resulting menu. You could also hold down the Alt key and double click the drive you want to open Properties. You'll get a handy little pie chart showing you how much disk space is left.
