"Disk Cleanup" should NOT take 40 minutes... to have the progress bar show that it's 1/7 done.

I shudder to think how long defrag will take.

Defrag? Oh, you must mean "reformat". ;-)

Those who can't do, teach. ;)

And those who don't know anything about computer maintenence ask silly questions like, "If I have a Mac, do I still need to do that stuff?"

[kyra-ojosverdes.livejournal.com]

I have no idea. Hopefully someone else will! Sorry!

If you're running OS X, you shouldn't have to. It does a pretty good job of both self-defragmenting and avoiding it altogether. To get a badly fragmented disk on OS X or most Unix filesystems, you have to be doing some insanely huge ammounts of constant file creation and deletion.

Excellent - I do have OS X, and I'm glad to know that.

Thanks for reminding me... I had a virus and didn't know it.
