Go to the icon my computer, rt click on it and pick properties, then rt click on local disk C, and pick properties.

This shows you what the computer sees as actual usage. If you have a 150 gig hard drive, it will not show 150, only what is usable.

It shows what is being used and what storage is left.

Is a 250GB hard drive adequate for a home computer?

No matter what the size of hard drive you have, you will eventually have to replace it. I built a computer in September 06. It had a 250 GB hard drive. I am probably the average computer user; I use mine for homework, a little bit of gaming, surfing the web, some DVD editing, and msn. My hard drive is about half full by now (June 07). I recently just added another 250 GB hard drive to use when my first one is full. You can add it on to your computer, so it might be fine to just start with a 250 or 320 GB hard drive and add another one in a year or so.
