If I recall correctly, the OS won't take up 16gb, it just requires that amount for installation (like Vista required 15gb), once the installation is complete, the amount of space it takes up drops quite a bit.

 

That's interesting...they should really include that information, if it's say 10 gigs, that'd be much better.  Still a lot for the size HD I have, but still MUCH better=P

 

they said 16 and 20 just to avoid lawsuits, if one person had a install amount of 17 gb all hell will break loose.  Another thing is I have 64-bit and my windows install only take about 13 gb of space much lower than the 20 min. 

I'm running the 32 bit version and it's using 8GB of hard drive space.
