Holy shit. Doing some routine computer cleanup, and I went through and got rid of temporary files, recycle bin stuff, hibernation files, etc. The recycle bin evidently had a bunch of crap in it, though I don't recall what a bunch of old Sims neighborhoods and such--I figure I don't ever play more than a family or two at a time anyway, I don't need everything else. And the hibernation backup stuff was a good 3 gigs or so (what, does it play like system restore and keep the last 10 hibernation points or something? It's not like I ever need more than the last one, as I've never seen an option to reboot back to an earlier hibernation point!). But what really killed me? The system restores. I need to look at how often it's backing them up, because I'm now TWENTY ONE GIGS (!!11!one!1eleven!!1!) freer than I was a few minutes ago. Minus the 4.27 that were the normal disk cleanup stuff, and we're still talking almost 17 gigs of pure system restores. I repeat: holy shit.
