Ok so my OCZ Vertex 2 SSD died, decided to create a usb stick to install W8 that way I could play with it a bit more..
full install only 15GB!! w7 was at least 30, haven't had time to rummage and see wot's missing but half the size is pretty impressive.
Oh and I said I liked it didn't I??
I guess i'm just a micro$oft fanboy... lol!!!!
Windows 8 install inc WMC 15GB !!

My W7HP x64 (SP1) installation is less than 15 GB. Of course, by the time you add in the page file (if you have one), the hibernation file (if you have one), and whatever space is required for whatever extra programs you have installed, the space requirement will climb well over 15 GB.
