Yeah, and I run a utility to whack all those unused binaries and unused
translations, and recover at least a gigabyte of disc space from a stock
install of OS X.

My ibook has limited internal storage, and I'm not lugging around an
external drive when I run out of space just so I can run my OS in
Afrikanns.

I think you're head is stuck in a bad place -- downloading software from a
place like bebits.
