Mainly things like Go, GCC, some Python and Tcl/Tk tools, several 
programmers editors, Wine, and several Forth tools. Right now I have 90 
GB free space with most of the above mentioned tools loaded. I was 
worried that after loading a few more programming tools it might be 
wiser to have a 240GB or 480GB SSD for Linux and right now I have not 
spent a lot of time on the Linux partition so it might be a good time to 
switch the HD drive and reload the OS before I spent more time 
configuring things.

I have several 240GB drives so it might not be a bad idea to swap it now 
before I get seriously started with using Linux.

The machine is an i7 3.4 GHz CPU with 24GB of RAM a bigger drive would 
have more room for a couple of vmWare Window CPUs in the SSD for booting 
speed.

I'll figure it out soon as I have a project I want to get started with 
and as part of evaluating if I should switch to Linux would be to do 
that project under Linux and see how it works out.
