Applications install preferences, caches, and other support files throughout your computer that take up space and generate clutter. Deleting these by hand every time you delete an app is a pain.

  Little Snitch

  Little Snitch is a software firewall that protects your computer against unwanted guests from the Internet. But who protects your private data from being sent out? Little Snitch does!

  Little Snitch informs you whenever a program attempts to establish an outgoing Internet connection. You can then choose to allow or deny this connection, or define a rule how to handle similar, future connection attempts. This reliably prevents private data from being sent out without your knowledge. Little Snitch runs inconspicuously in the background and it can also detect network related activity of viruses, trojans and other malware.

  Boot Camp is a MacOS X.5 Leopard feature that manages to install a (licensed) Windows XP or Vista operating system on a Mac computer in a dedicated partition.

  A program called Boot Camp Assistant helps in creating a new disk partition on a Mac machine keeping all the data safe. When Windows is installed on that partition, the drivers needed can be found on Leopard DVD.

  Boot Camp installs a bootloader to choose the operating system to load. It can be run at startup by pressing ALT button. Boot Camp even provides an automatic PC Key remapping program.

  All the drivers Apple provides are Microsoft WHQL-Certified.

  This program used to be a public beta before Leopard's final release. Now it continues to work on Tiger systems but can't be downloaded any more from Apple's website nor it is supported on any OS than Leopard.
  From early version of Leopard, it seemed that one could perform a system hybernation on both system to fast-switch between the two. Now this feature is not present.

  Xslimmer

  Xslimmer reduces the disk space taken up by Universal Binary applications preserving just the Intel or PowerPC version.

  Xslimmer is a new and user-friendly way to size down your Universal Binary apps, without losing any of their functionality by removing the code inside the Universal Binaries that does not fit with your machine's architecture, a code that never gets executed and just wastes your disk space.

  In addition, Xslimmer can strip out unneeded languages. Safari is available in more than a dozen languages, Adium in more than 20. This is great, but how many of those do you need? Xslimmer allows you to select how many languages you want to preserve in your apps and will remove the rest, recovering lots of precious free space from your disk.

  Now fully Leopard compatible!
