@ew: so... profound. though it makes sense - declutter, whether your computer or your life is very... freeing .lol
@deepa: design files from my old work, shows I've been catching up on... hehe
@jonelski: you really should! I hear in order to keep your computer healthy you need to have at least half of it's space free.. don't know if there's any truth to that.. any thoughts @ew?
i was able to download Disk Inventory X. *SO* cool. it shows you (in color blocks) which file types (and if you drag the mouse over it, which files!) take the most space in your hard drive. go try and download it! of course mine's full of videos. and now that i know, i'm too tamad to clear-up space:P
some say you should have at least 20% free space. some say 10%. i guess 50% is a good ratio. in any case, my edu (mansanas) has not slowed down at all (or if at all, at least it's unnoticeable) and i love mac for that:) i never got that with windows.
the art of letting go ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of space you freed up! What was the bulk of the stuff you trashed?
ReplyDeleteah! i should do that, too! i've always been procrastinating! i have like 2gb left on this baby!

ReplyDelete@Jonelski - i love that program! I used it to clean up my old work computer :)
ReplyDeleteI think my Macbook deserves a clean-up too. I will try that application. Thanks for the tip JNL.
