[QUOTE="Bill_Gates, post: 323204, member: 9681"] jaster - I have always run delocalizer ([url]http://www.bombich.com/software/local.html[/url]) to remove all those unneeded languages. Usually ends up freeing up a few gigs if i remember correctly. Something I never noticed before is that the developer had stop updating the program after 10.2 or so! But I have used it on Tiger in the past with no issues (that I've seen to date). Obviously, this also means it's not a universal binary program, but snooping around the net seems to give me the impression people haven't really had issues with it with their Intel macs. Maybe someone who's used it on an Intel machine could chime in with their experience. You could also look at Monolingual ([url]http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/[/url]) which is designed for Tiger... but be careful not to let it remove any architecture support you may need (Rosetta). Another method would be just reloading the O/S from the CDs and selecting what programs and install options you like... I know people who often will do this with a new machine Oh... and...for what it's worth, I would have went for the MacBook too! ;) [/QUOTE]
