The laptop has an AMD Sempron 2800 CPU, 80 gig HD and 1 gig of RAM.

Sheesh! I have files bigger than 80gb. This reminds me of back in '89 when I bought a 20mb hard drive. I knew I would never be able to fill that monster up. :) It was on a screaming 286 processor! Now I'm just trying to hang another 3tb drive on my XP. If I can do that I'll be happy.

Wow, I can see picture files or videos taking a ton of room, but you have an 80GB program or is that work product of some kind?

I went so far back that I used to do cost accounting reports of hundreds of pages using a Durango D-Basic machine and two floppys.

I think I had a 512k disk for the program and another 512k disk for a year of reports. LOL
