Hi Severin,

I've replied to you and The List in case anyone using Leopard searches the 'The 
Archives' ;-)

To display Folder sizes in List view, go to View in the MenuBar and select Show 
View Options. In the window that opens, look down to the bottom section and 
place a tick in the 'Calculate All Sizes' box. 
Then wait while Finder performs the calculations and the folder sizes should 
now be shown. 
If they still don't show, make sure there's a tick in the 'Show Columns - Kind' 
box.

In list view, Finder will show file sizes in the window. 
To also show folder sizes, enable Calculate All Sizes in Finder's View Options. 

In icon view, if you enable Show Item Info, although it won't show the size, it 
will show how many items are inside the folder. 

In column view, clicking on a file will show its size along with a preview and 
other information.

Cheers,
Ronni
