Open Source

Following up from my last post, I did recently download an open source program for my mac. As you probably know macs do not come with a add/remove program or application remover. So, although dragging applications into the trash can on macs deletes most of the applications contents, it doesn't remove all of its contents. So unnecessary files take up valuable space. So I downloaded an open source program, called appcleaner, that is an application remover and it works great. I can't find any contents left over when I delete programs now and can free up some space on my computer. It is very easy to do, you can either drag the application directly into the program and it deletes it or you can browse their your files and delete them that way. I highly recommend this to people with a lot of applications and downloads on their mac.

Life is somewhat easier if you give in and go to the dark side, AKA, Wintel and Microsoft. There's a reason that business and Chapman don't use Apple--Wintel/Microsoft are more business-friendly...
