Fyi---found A Very Good App. Called Monolingual--installed It And Ran It-- It Removed 2.6 Gb's Of Languages On My G-4-os 10.5.3. Everytime You Install A New App. It Puts In All The Languages For Its Operation. I Ws Amazed At The Memory It Was Using On My Hd.
Most Of Us Use English Only And Can Get Rid Of All Others.
Just Google "monolingual ".very Simple To Use App. And Very Good.--free---

Just to further this discussion -- if you're fixing to install or re-install Mac OS X, you have the option of only installing English (or any other language) and skipping the rest of them so you can save space from the start.

Also... Dickster... does your computer automatically capitalize each word for you, or do you do that manually? Your "shift" finger must be crazy strong from all that capitalization!

Eldiablo---thanks for the heads up on capitalization. i was working on a pc at work and didn't realize what was going on. hard to switch from apple to pc and back each day !
