Re: OSX and "re-building desktop"?

[MMB]

Thanks Bruce.
Is the 3am cleanup done on any particular day?
Can I see that somehow on the hard disc?

Hi:
I am a long-time Mac owner and have kept my previous machines happy by
regular desktop re-building. I have been using my Powerbook G4 867 for
three months now and I am concerned. SOme cleaning up and tidying must
be needed but how.
If you don't leave the system on overnight at least once a week, get
something like MacJanitor and manually run the various cron scripts
that normally run at 3AM. This rotates logs, cleans up temp files, etc
etc.
There is no 'desktop' to rebuild, per se.
