Mac Maintenance

ByMike Moffit

Some people regard their Mac as a pet – a cheery companion that sits in the corner of their room or office, just waiting for a little attention. It’s easy to take care of, requiring very little electricity, exercise, or grooming. However, a little maintenance can help keep a Mac healthy and happy. Here is a great article outlining how to do basic Mac maintenance. To keep my Macs happy, I also use a free program called OnyX to run some basic Unix and Mac maintience scripts. Find it on Versiontracker.com by clicking here.

Have Fun!
