A good way to see who's eating up all your drive space is to view your hard
drive in list view. In a finder window go to 'View" -> 'show view options' and
select the 'calculate all sizes' switch. In the finder window sort by the size
column and the largest folders will percolate to the top of the list. I bet
iLife support files are taking up most of your space.
