Actually, DJ, I haven't ever had the Starcraft demo installed on this computer, and Warcraft III... um, maybe for a while several years ago... you don't NEED them, with the fact that the exclusive missions in them are available as downloadable map campaigns you can play in the full version. :)
I do, however, have a lot of demos installed on my computer. About 20 gigs of them. :D
That wasn't counting the gig of Guild Wars fanvideos either (because they aren't trailers, they're done by fans), but most of those are worth keeping and I deleted the 180MB one that really was worthless... as for the trailers though, for instance I have all of the Nintendo videos from E3 '04 (from their website) and all of the ones from '05 as well, for starters, along with lots of trailers for all kinds of stuff... some I'm keeping just for fun (like the E3 2000 Halo trailer for PC, or the Ultima Online 2 trailer, or the old Prey videos, or the Final Fantasy XI Online opening video, etc...), others... uh, no reason... but why delete things? I still have ... oh, right, under 4 gigs free out of 110GB usable space... :D But I look at most of them and think 'these aren't too large, so I'd need to delete a lot to make much of a dent in freeing up space (the only reason to delete them), and I don't want to do that'... so I look at the big ones, but never want to actually delete them... once you delete them it's hard to replace them, you know, and I don't want that to happen... :)

Quote:4 gigs of trailers? That's insane, Brian. Maybe you should try deleting trailers for stuff you already have or for things that have been out for a while.
