Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how to go about re-installing osx without doing away with logic permantely. By that I mean; Is there a correct procedure for uninstalling logic? Is there anyway I might somehow erase and not be able to re-install logic? I'm new to logic and macs in general, and I've been told the best way to optimize hardisk space is by re-installing osx and to only run the applications that I'll need. This sounds correct, however, I have no idea where to begin. Any thoughts are welcome. Thanks!

The best thing you can do to improve performance is to max out your RAM, and record to an audio only hardrive.
With most hardrives, fragmented files are not an issue because of the large cache found on most drives. As long as you have the install disks, you can delete an install Logic as many times as you want. If you want to clean the disk befor installing, use the disk utility found int the utilities folder in the applications folder to initialize and or partition the drive. There really isn't a lot of tweaking that can be done with OSX, as compared to OS9.
