[QUOTE="Kash, post: 390091, member: 23444"] You can easily get rid of all of the programs in red with the exception of Automator. Though to be honest, you probably won't save much space by getting rid of them. Of all the programs on that list, the one that will give you back the most amount of space is Garageband. The sample files that go with Garageband can total somewhere around 2-3GB. You shouldn't have to worry about not being able to get the pre-loaded applications back. There is a little program out there (the name is slipping my mind at the moment) that lets you extract them from your installation discs. So you can get rid of Garageband for now and if you decide to use it later, you can just pull it off your installation discs. [/QUOTE]
