HA! I still triple that number!  I still reign supreme as the collector of the most useless files. BTW that doesn't even include the OS... I really need to clean out some of the crap though...

    57,376 Files on the XP computer that I am on that only has a 10GB Hard drive. (Actually the hard drive is 30GB I just have 20GB set aside for Linux)

    Oh, and on my Vista computer I have: 399,511 Files.  (Am I getting close BC_Programmer)
    BTW:  Should I count the linux partition on my vista computer too???
    To think, that someday, someone will always outdo me.

      I wish that I could do this probably will have to do it later.  But I have so many machines but at any rate I will say the machine that I will probably use has the drive filed.  But I want to use my batman pc again so badly then that number would be smaller.
