Have I blundered?

I got myself a nice, clean PC for my first venture into Vista. I had a clean
C drive of 40Gig, E: Drive of 160G and running Windows Home Server I have
another 800Gig out on that machine.
My thinking was that C: with 40 should be more than adequate for the OS and
Apps, the 160Gig on E: would suit all immediate local storage and the 800 on
the Server would handle big stuff like Video, TV, DVD recordings etc.
Well, I installed Vista (Ultimate) and a couple of dozen apps (Office, TV
card, Anti Virus etc. etc.) and to my surprise I find over half of C: is now
used.
What I wonder is, have I blundered? Am I going to run out of space on C:?
Should I replace C: now with a bigger drive and reload Vista etc. and avoid
any future angst?

All and any advice gratefully considered. (no sniggering please).
