Win7 New Install And Disc Space Question
So I've installed Win7 Pro on my Mac via bootcamp. I've done this twice.
I don't plan on using it much other than to check things for web development for my job.
The first time I created the partition, I made it small as per the reason above. I set it to 32gb and after a fresh install without adding any extra programs, it took up about 28gb of space I believe.
I wasn't expecting it to take up that much room as I had done some research and talked to some friends, and had heard lower numbers.
I just deleted the partition and started over, this time allocating 50gb. The install this time took up ~36gb of space.
Is this normal? I've installed nothing else, and this is a fresh install. No system restore points or anything.
