How can I find out the size of the hard disk on an Apple iBook?

I'm selling an old iBook laptop on ebay, and someone has just emailed me asking for the size of the hard disk. I thought I'd put all the info in the listing, but clearly not. Where does this info live, please???

click on the disk and press apple key and I (possibly... ...always used to work..)

OKay, just tried that and it tells me how much space/stuff there is on it, but not the original storage capacity IYSWIM. Hmm.

errm.. ...if it's got OSX on it you can bring up terminal window (Applications/Utilities/Terminal and then type df -h ) which should give disk stats in human readable format...

...alternatively.. ..the space+stuff = size of hard drive... :-D

The Capacity is the size of the hard disk.

Found it -- you right click on the icon, and it brings up a Get Info option. Phew.
