Prepare your Mac for service
Making a backup is an important part of preparing your Mac for service, especially because some types of repair might require erasing or replacing your hard drive.

To see the size of a specific file or folder, click it once and then press Command-I. To see storage information about your Mac, click the Apple menu in the top-left of your screen. Choose About This Mac and click the Storage tab. For Time Machine backups, it's good to use a drive that has at least twice the storage capacity of your Mac.

I'm curious as to the size of OS X.
I'm regularly cloning my system to an external drive and it usually takes 18 GB.
I have been doing this since the computer was new, which was during the summer and 10.5.4 was then installed. The clone's size has been approx the same all the time.
There is only one user (me) and the home area is approx. 2.5 GB. In addition, I have installed the following bigger applications: iWork'08, Nikon Scan, VueScan, extra sounds for Garage Band (from the disc). None of these are particularly big (the biggest are iWork, supposedly 0,5 GB, and the GB sounds, approx 1 GB). I have also installed the various updates issued since I got the computer.
I've read ( http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs) that OS X takes about 9 GB so I'm wondering if 18 GB seems normal for my setup? A bit of an odd question, since clearly 18GB is what it is, but there you go.
Thanks for some insight.
