Hi Unman, thanks for your reply. I guess compared to win7 that is a small footprint. But by my standards it is still quite a large footprint especially for a Hypervisor type1. But I guess you need all those drivers on installation. If I stripped out all the unused files and drives and apps for my particular laptop. I may reduce the OS size down to maybe 100mb :) lol.
