I'm betting piles of companies have this issue.
When we finally get around to upgrading to 2012, I think we are going to start
off nice and clean and try to import as little as possible.

To me it seems the major offenders are realtek, ATI and Intel. There driver
packages are huge!

Driver bloat :-)
That's a lot for 11 different systems, but I suspect the issue is more from
importing all the extra garbage that's often packaged with the drivers (and
lots of OSes and architectures that you don't need).
If you wanted to spend a few fun days manually cleaning out all the junk, I'm
guessing you could easily get it down under 1GB, and with even more work
probably under 500GB. (I talked to an organization with over 400 models that
had a 2GB driver repository.)
Thanks,
-Michael

It seems to me like my driver packages are getting out of hand ... 8 gigs seems
like a lot ... its bigger then my wim!
I do system specific targeting for driver deployment and my deployment covers
11 different systems.
Offline images are almost 18 gigs
