[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1807597, member: 396914"] Randy, from your comment I'm not sure you've looked at OnyX recently. Here is what you get when you open it: [ATTACH=FULL]28897[/ATTACH] and if you click on the Maintenance tab, you get this [ATTACH=FULL]28898[/ATTACH] When I compare that screen to YASU, there really isn't that much difference. But, again, it's your list, so there is nothing wrong about leaving it out. It's just curious that it is a good tool, we recommend it here all the time, and it is free. Frankly, I'd never heard of YASU before your list. But when I went to the developers website and read it, I'm not sure your low-tech user would understand terms like "Perform the Unix "cron" scripts to clear up system clutter," and "reset the launch serivces [sic] database.". Let's face it, maintenance on a *nix based system is not trivial, and it's not easy to make it so. Fortunately it's only rarely needed. [/QUOTE]
