		<description>Eva007,

Thanks for the comment! Good point, I could see that... at first glance it looks very busy. In all fairness, I'll try to add treeview to the list of tools to blog about because you're right that some people may want something with numbers.

However, I've found that after time it's really helpful to me (and possibly others who are visual folks) to actaully see a visual representation of the drives usage.

For me, I don't like the needing to drill into the directory structure to see why program files is 5Gb of a 12Gb disk. It just seems easier to me to be able to look at the biggest box in the program files section and ask-- "do I need that program" or simply see that there is a huge log file in a folder some number of folders deep into the4 structure without clicking.</description>

		<description>Sorry but I think TreeSize is a much better tool.  I find space monger rather confusing to look at.  TreeSize has lots of good aspects like give you the oldest file, the largest etc...  Eva</description>
