-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Chris, Not everything has to be a pissing match. I'm stating my oppinion. If you want to write back and be civil, be my guest. If you're going to curse at me, don't bother because it's generally not worth reading. Firstly, I've never at any point claimed to be "smart" or even subtlely mentioned it. My messages here have always been in an attempt to provide more information.
I understand that you can back things up. The point though is that sometimes you might make a backup and find out 2 weeks later that a little-used application was broken by something removed or you might miss a file. I don't happen to have an endless backup drive, so my backups are generally limited. Beyond that though, it really is a lot of effort just to save 3 gb and there's a higher risk associated with it. Chances are you could do something else to save that space without the worries. Everything in this article still stands.
