Flash back to 10.2:

I had noticed disappearing disk space on some of the computers where I 
work. I don't know what, how, or why, but when I booted into OS 9, I 
found the OS 9 trash was full of temp files. Photoshop 7, Illustrator 
10, were native, but we use some classic applications (Quark 4, 
Pagemaker 6.5, Streamline).


I haven't noticed this in 10.3.1, but then again, I have 30 gigs free.
