Well recently I have been working on getting my Powerbook a little leaner, which by strange coincidence was an article in the issue of this month’s MacLife Magazine. I had been doing the usual, removing old stuff (video’s, pic’s and misc. items) that I had downloaded for one reason or another and do not need to keep.

However an app that I had know about for a while now and just never thought to use came in real handy. It’s called AppZapper. While I have never minded paying for quality software, the $12.95 that I spent for this was WAY more than worth it.

This program makes it simple to remove old and or unwanted apps. With this I was able to clear away almost 2gb worth of old & unwanted apps from my system. If you have a Mac and have not used this program I suggest you give it a shot, they even have a trial that I think allows you the ability to zap 5 apps. More than enough to test it out, I am sure you will like it.

[UPDATE] Let me clarify, I understand that you can remove apps from a mac without using AppZapper. It is fairly easy to do, however if like me you have a bunch to remove you WILL want to use this program. With AppZapper it makes it VERY simple, I was able to remove all those apps and free up all that space at one time with just a few clicks. So the great thing here is the time saver, instead of sitting for an hour or so, it took literally a few minutes.

That $12.95 is well worth the time I saved.
