You've never built open office from source have you?

I have 1.2TB thats about full and its a source repo and build space.
100GB netbsd, 300GB ubuntu, 350GB debian, 300GB, gnewsense, lotsa desktop doc backups.

its easy to blow a little bit of space with a build box =/

However, I recon Micheal meant, 0.4TB ie; 400GB

cheers,

Kim
