 Hi

Anyone know how to clean out the driver's and app's folders on IBM
laptops (DRIVERS, IBMTOOLS, etc). There's gigs worth of stuffi n there
that would be nice to get rid of! Maybe if I could delete everything
except the last installed driver set?

Thanks
James

That's somewhat cold. You will note that the OP has not cross-posted to
your referenced group. Why would you assume that the OP reads that
group? Your response to the referenced group is in your sent items
folder, why not just CCP it to your response? Certainly it would take
only incrementally more time than posting what appears to be an insult.

It wasn't an assumption, he posted the exact same question in that group.

Sorry if it appeared that way, I'll give your suggestion some thought.
