[QUOTE="gatorparrots, post: 2668"] OS X can be shaved down to well below 600MB, so there is some excess fat that is capable of being trimmed. That said, this is a fairly advanced procedure and not to be performed by the faint of heart. You can safely remove the extra languages using DeLocalizer: [URL="https://bombich.com/"]Mac Backup Software | Carbon Copy Cloner | Bombich Software[/URL] Then there are print drivers, desktop pictures, and other components you may be able to safely remove: [URL="https://bombich.com/"]Mac Backup Software | Carbon Copy Cloner | Bombich Software[/URL] (Under the section [B]Setup your System on the test disk[/B] Mike Bombich discusses which system components can be safely deleted.) Be warned, this is a delicate procedure and one misstep could render your system inoperable, forcing you to reinstall the OS. [/QUOTE]
