[NTLUG:Discuss] ext3 waste disk spaces then Windows ME?

[m m]

All:

I just notice that my 160 G hard drive "shrinked" to 140 (145?) G hard drive 
after fomatted to ext3 file system and mounted to my linux box.

I used to use that 160 G HD as WIN ME box, at that time I still have about 
150  G total spaces.

Each  file system have its advantages. but is it worth to  sacrifice about 
10G to use another file system?
