What is adequate gigabytes for a home laptop computer?

It depends on what you will be using it for. If you plan to just browse internet and maybe do some typing 80GB is more than enough. If you plan to put any games or download music you may want to go with more like 200GB. If you have anything important I would also buy an external hard drive then you can go from computer to computer and have extra storage. The size of an external also would depend on what you would put on it. 500GB will last you a very long time, but a 200GB will also be enough to hold alot of music, movies, and pictures.
