Right, John. A newer, bigger, shinier HD is undoubtedly the way to clean up my
system, which is getting MIGHTY crowded.
In previous operating system incarnations, I've gone through this business of
assigning system resources outside the boot partition, especially FONTS and
LIBS. Everybody wants to stuff in more fonts of their own, and there are so
many home-brew libraries around that I've long ago lost count. (Wish
directories had a 'last used' entry so that I could identify which libraries
could be gracefully retired).
But a bigger HD with a much bigger boot partition will ease the crowding and,
at least for a time, bring back sanity to the system. (Irrelevant quote of the
week: "As far as Microsoft contracts are concerned, there ain't no sanity
clause").
Thanks for the help.
