Looked in the Apple System Profiler. Now (in 10.2.6) it reports that my hard drive is 31GB (1K=1000). Always (before 10.2.6) was 30GB.

Two partitions on it are reported as 14 and 17GB.

A feature of the update not yet mentioned - apparent increase in hard drive capacity.

Never noticed...my 40 GB hard drive is reported as 41GB. Apparently System Profiler adds 1 to the reported capacity in error. The size is correct for K=1024.
