Oh, Russ, you are kidding! Neither did I look before, nor after the
fact. I am just cleaning house. And this old titanium still had stuff
from yesteryear in it, having had everything dumped on it from my old
6400 and I was curious. But now I shall look how much space I
actually have left. This one, my iBook , has 37 GB used and 8 left.
Since my bed is my castle now,I fiddle around with this one. You got
me interested, I will check the rest of my machines.

How much disk space did you gain after deleting those [dusty] files?

People, thanks for all your efforts. The question why I asked was
that I had that enormous amount in one of my oldest computers, not
even knowing what all these leftovers were. So to at least get rid
of the stuff I knew, I thought I would get the thing down to size,
so I could see what all the old things were by just pulling some
out at a time. But it was not to be. --- So I trashed them all out
of the trash into oblivion.

You can always lock the items you want to keep. When the warning
comes
up, just click Continue. Or, better, still, drag them out of the
trash
into another folder.

the converting

happen.
