have just finished installing Ubuntu version 7.04 Feisty Fawn on the
home computer. I notice that this release includes some cool tools
including this disk usage analyzer software. <br><br>It enables users to
view a cool, colour graphical image of their hard disk drive usage,
helping users to quickly nail down a rogue directory or location that
is chewing up all their hard disk storage space. Trying to display
diagnostic information like this in a user readable form is always
going to be tricky balance between information and graphical alerts,
they seem to have the balance right here. (Linux, FLOSS and even better than DiskTree Pro)<br><br>Fantastic that they bundle this with the new Ubuntu and it has been fun to play around with these new features. :-)<br><br>
