Hmm, interesting question. 
Considering it's all in a single db (I think), it may not take up that much space at all. Doubt it would fit on a floppy, though. 
Let's see if anyone knows... or is willing to say. 
Cheers
Mick

Well, I guess you could kinda figure it out by saving this whole page once it fills up and goes to page 2, see how many kb's it takes up, and then multiply by the number of pages in techimo, resellerratings, and the news pages....
Oh, nevermind....Scott, right click and tell us what the properties says!

ahhh RF but it would not be the same
Have to remember the HTML is not stored in the DB
Only the data is stored, the rest is generated on the fly via script
if it included the HTML it would be substantially larger

.... and if it includes WebCam Washing Machine pics it would be larger again!
But I'm pretty sure RobRich said the advertising pics and data are in another db somewhere.
We are only talking TechIMO data, right?
Cheers

Well ya have to figure in all the attachments and avatars too,so that would raise the HDD usage.
Very interesting question though.
If you right click on the ads images you will see that the images are on the RR server.

All the images aren't actually in the database (doh)
I have no idea how big it would be, but much less then you would think, a forum database simply ain't that big.
