I think I am ready to trash all my OS9 cababilities on my G4 powerbook (and free up some much needed disc space).
Whats the "easiest way" to do this??
Many Thanks

Delete system folder and OS 9 Apps folder and you will get some space back.

If OS X gives you grief about deleting the files, do a "Get Info" on them and change the owner to you. They're sometimes set up with the System as the owner and you can't delete them.

Or just download Cocktail...

A bit off-topic, but another great way to save disk space in OSX is to delete all the foreign language files. If you just use 1 language, there's really no need to have all the others. Use an app like Delocalizer and you could save hundreds of MB's of disk space.
