10MB is all that is needed.

You'll have...
Faster Check Disks
Faster Virus Scans
Faster defragmentation
Reduced overhead when going to web sites.
Reduced usage especially with Today's large 10's of GB hard disks

I think it makes a difference whether the person has a broadband connection.
If, instead, he has dialup, he may need a bigger TIF size if he wants better
performance while surfing the web.

Even for broadband, isn't 10 MB a bit low (mine is set to 25MB)?

If you watch streaming video, you might need more than 10 MB. If I'm not
mistaken, 2-5MB files would fill that up.

Nope. The size of the files tend to be small and the number of files large. It doesn't
matter if broadband or dial-up, 10MB is all that's needed.
