 Ubuntu - Disk Usage Analyzer

I have just finished installing Ubuntu version 7.04 Feisty Fawn on the home
computer. I notice that this release includes some cool tools including this
disk usage analyzer software.

It enables users to view a cool, colour graphical image of their hard disk
drive usage, helping users to quickly nail down a rogue directory or
location that is chewing up all their hard disk storage space. Trying to
display diagnostic information like this in a user readable form is always
going to be tricky balance between information and graphical alerts, they
seem to have the balance right here. (Linux, FLOSS and even better than
DiskTree Pro)

Fantastic that they bundle this with the new Ubuntu and it has been fun to
play around with these new features. :-)

Regards Roland
