There is a host of stuff within the system itself. Using resedit, color desk stuff international calanders and more were found in the system. Is there reason to get rid of these? Will it save disk space, memory, speed? Perhaps there is enought junk in system 7 that I could toss enough to fit it on an 800 k floppy.
