[pchelpers] Re: Using TreeSize


I often leave stuff out also... and I don't always catch it when I
re-read (or I forget to re-read, etc.)  Bad part is that sometimes I
don't read all of the other replies first before sending my own reply.

Well, I don't know what sizes were still in the distribution pipeline
when WinME came out (note that new drives can be available for months
after they are no longer being manufactured).  Places like eMachines
would do something like that, certainly.
