I'd say that you definitely have Library bloat. Mine is User Lib  
2.29, System Lib 1.68. Admittedly you have some more bloated  
programmes than I, but I bet you have many files that can be erased,  
or at least stored elsewhere.
My 160 Gid drive uses only 26.5 Gigs. Also check for duplicates &  
sometimes "Hidden Files". Be aware that some programmes, mostly IBM  
type ported to Mac keep a copy of the older version after updating,  
whereas most Mac programmes delete the previous version. HTH.
