[QUOTE="WilliS, post: 32079"] 1. Its there for old applications that wont run in osx.. it can be removed by formatting the computer (aka reinstall).. not sure if there is an easier way 2. no documentation needed... pop in the osx disc it came with (should probably be a dvd).. then click to install osx, it restarts the system.. go up to the menu bar at the top, and there should be a drop down menu with "disk utility" on it. go into that... it will load your hard drive partitions... click on the drive itself, go to the partition tab, and repartition it... this time leaving os9 off it.... then go back and install osx on the drive you just partitioned. *** note *** actually...aftery typing that out, trying to recall how to do it, you might just want to find a step by step graphic website lol... its second nature to me, after doing it 200+ times working for my school district, but im sure i left something out 3. dont know... all i can say is that i own an ibook, and it gets really hot when sitting in my lap for a few hours... but it has never caused a problem for me.
