I just heard of the program "monolingual" from my cousin, which removes all unwanted foreign language files from your computer, including the OS. It saved me about 5 GB on my macbook.

very interesting; i'll have to peep it out when I get up in the morning... But I guess it'd help I could fall asleep first
thanks

localization?

thanks-
seems good as long as you don't delete any languages you use for work correspondence. I have some emails with diagrams in French and German so I left those languages out but still saved over 2GB.

Crud, I used it and I decided not to take out my fonts, just because some websites use it and I don't like viewing them question marks. Then I saw something were you can take your PPC stuff out, so I'm like.. Well, I use an Intel, I don't need that stuff.
I delete it and the I realized I couldn't use my scanner. I have to open PS in Rosetta, and it would work fine. After deleting my PPC files, I couldn't use Rosetta anymore. So this program actually takes out the Rosetta function in X. Ugh!Anyone know if I reinstall X with an archive install, would it keep my programs, and all?

Feels a little too much like a cultural genocide for me.

I always wipe and install fresh on a new machine, so i never install that stuff to begin with

Me too... along with foreign fonts and most printer drivers.

I wish there was a program to remove all my shitty fonts

why not just CUSTOM clean install and just install what you want. I do this every time and saves me about 8gigs! I usually let it eat away 2.3 gigs or a bit less depending on some printer drivers and some other apps that you might/might not want. easy as pie!

I already use Monolingual. But thanks for reminding me to let it run again. I have installed many programs since my last sweep ;)

Err fuck the language support. Those of you that have clicked the custom button at install (possibly for osx86 kexts :P) will know how fucking huge and bloated the printer drivers installed by default are.
