For those concerned with menu bar real estate, or tired of looking at
balloon help, or just aesthetics...

Using Resedit, open up the MENUs resource in the System file and
delete the one with ID -16490. Presto! No more Balloon Help! And even
Superclock saunters over nicely to occupy that space.

So far this hasn't caused me any problems, your mileage may vary...

By the way, I'm no expert on these things, so do this at your own risk
(any *real* experts care to comment?)

Sunil.
