    for the harddrive, if I choose the 80gig harddrive, how much space will I ACTUALLY have free on my harddrive after installing the Windows Vista home premium?

    65-70GB would be my best guess.

    ACTUALLY 75-76Gb, but Sony would spend 5Gb on a hidden partition, so you have 70Gb out-of-the-box, after Vista that number maybe 63-65Gb, depends on what version of Vista you use
