I'm not sure how much space is needed, but eToys has 3.18Mb mpg movie  
sitting there as part of a demo file, not sure why it needs to be  
quite so large:

	usr/share/etoys/ExampleEtoys/ParticleDyeInWater.mpg

Anyway, I _really_ dislike the idea of intended file loss, though as  
was pointed out it's better than a kid losing all their data. Is it  
possible to trigger a script that asks for a USB stick to be inserted  
and then move items over there?
