If thats pretty much all you use it for, I'd get the drive Freeze recommended and just install JoliCloud as the OS. If I remember right, its quite a bit smaller than Windows 7 and should do everything you need. Or you could always do a dualboot, but I wouldn't bother if you don't use it for much other than media.

Uh, there is no need to install a smaller OS in a 500gig drive.

Its just a better OS for netbooks to be honest, and if he filled the 250gig that easy, then a half a dozen or so more gigs couldn't hurt by any means. I mean hell, I have over 500gigs just in movies, right around 50 gigs in music, 30 gigs of ROMS for my PSP, and at least 5gigs of pictures. If he's anything like me he would need every last bit of that 500gigs.

I linked for a 640gig on sale from WD, unless you fork over some bucks for the 750gig badboy. I'm glad im not a media whore and don't have gigs and gigs worth of movies and MP3's besides my HTPC.

Hell, here's their 1TB drive if your in of need space, but get ready to pony up for it. Also, the 750gig and 1TB are slightly larger and won't fit in all laptops

I could easily fill it up, but yea, I hear ya...I have a 1TB external, but I don't like to have stuff on it since I don't carry it with me when I take my laptop not to mention its just a PITA in general.
