I'm wondering why so many ppl seem to want these
large HD's (20, 30, 80 gig).
I understand it on the PC with all the bloated
software but not on the Amiga unless you're doing Video.

Well, you said it: video.

My Pegasos II has 120GB + 200GB (total 98% used), and Pegasos I 80GB + 400GB + 400GB (total 23% used).

Another use for the large HDD: backups. Using HDD for backups is great, as the speed is much better than any tape or other methods. Also HDDs are so cheap now it actually is cheaper in total.
