As an Art Director, I like to manage my own fonts, so I was looking for information about which fonts installed with Panther I could safely remove (remember those happy Classic days?) and came across Chuck Weger's Font Fatigue: Pruning Excess Fonts in Mac OS X at creativepro.com.

It says anything you need to know about essential fonts, conflicting system fonts, etc. Now I have only three System Fonts installed and manage the rest (2.500 fonts) through Extensis Suitcase. Only a couple comments:

Thanks Chuck Weger you have my eternal gratitude!
