Thank you Cleo,
Do monolingual and xslimmer count as hack? Lol I have never thought of that and was using them on both hds for like 2 years now without any problem. Free space... I tried to reinstall the terminal now using the Mac OS X install disc but the new version won't load, it has some problem with the architecture. I haven't been among mac people for years now and one learns faster if can see how the big playas do it.. at least once. I am visual. But the computer is working nevertheless. Just not the terminal.
And thanks to you Toby too... I have never liked the terminal, it looked like programming to me.
