Lazy programming, out sourced programming, people don't have to program within constraints, people have to program for so many possible hardware types, higher level languages compile worse than assembly or c, crappier compilers, little bits and pieces added-on by windows, lots of graphics in high color counts and high resolution.

Take your pick.

Wow I had no idea it was so small. I may just have to download it all myself. I have well over 200Gb of free space in my PC I think.....

I have all 52 AminetCD's here... each around 650MB...

650MB x 52 = 33 GB...

remove the commercials and guides, search indexes etc. and add the new files since last Aminet CD... then 31GB is very realistic. :-)
