20 and I use them all
I have heard of a few of these, but where can i see descriptions and download infor for these (and other) preference panes?
finding prefpanes
you can browse the selection at http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/ . not all listed are prefpanes; some are apps.
you can also search have google search macupdate.com for prefpanes: 'prefpane site:macupdate.com'.
8 here
A Better Finder, FinderPop, Flip4Mac, GeekTool, KeyAccess, Mouseworks, Perian, & Sophos Anti-Virus
DivX?
If you have Flip4Mac and Perian, do you need DivX?
DivX?
If you have VLC and/or MPlayer, you don't need DivX. Not sure about Perian, but Flip4Mac is a WMV-Plugin, not a DivX.

Here you can see all of them:

You're absolutely right ;)
3 "others"...
I have Flip4Mac, LaCie Shortcut button (which I have yet to use) and SANE (which allows me to use my unsupported scanner).
32
I have 32. Probably need to do some house keeping
Just Five
ExtFSManager, Miredo, Flip4Mac WMV, NTFS for MacOS X, Perian

Really needed: 6

β Useful
19
AppTrap β Automatic uninstaller, not yet used/tested.
Archives β Archive Utility's preference pane. Default Apps Diablotin β Organises Library folders. Disk Images β DiskImageMounter's preference pane. DSW β Looks strangely like launchd, not yet used/tested. Flip4Mac WMV β Plays WMVs in QuickTime. Growl iStat Menus β System info in menu bar. MenuMeters β Not sure why I still have this... MisFox Perian β Not sure what this is, but I installed it for a reason... PlugSuit β Makes more sense than SIMBL. Screenshots β May no longer necessary, see next one. Secrets β Change hidden settings (the server's back up!). Startup Sound β Adjust the volume of the startup sound. SteerMouse β Really pointless preference pane. Just a big icon in the middle to launch the application. Warp β Spaces thingy. Widget Manager β Strangely enough, this manages widgets.
Perian
Perian is a Quicktime Component, although they recently added a PreferencePane as well... you can see every codec it supports at perian.org.
6
Flip4Mac, Perian, Growl, MenuMeters, SteerMouse, TextExpander
Just 4 so far
1) Flip4Mac WMV
16
I have 16, two neat rows of 8!
15
I have 15: Application Enhancer, AppTrap (very useful), Logitech Control Center, Default Apps, DiVX (I should remove it), Environment variables (never used, it, probably should delete it), Flip4Mac WMV, Growl, Perian, PlugSuit, SmartSleep, Startup Sound, Symantec Auto-Protect, Symantec QuickMenu (Symantec is required at work) and TeX Distribution.
16.
A Better Finder (which, upon examination, seems to do nothing for me but to serialize A Better Finder Rename)
unlucky 13
Logitech Control Center (old version before it started totally flaking out)
9 in the list, could probably nuke half
ASM, DivX, Flip4Mac WMV, FruitMenu (can probably get rid of this), GeekTool (this too), GnuPG (and this... maybe), Growl, MenuMeters (haven't ever touched this), Perian
9
3Dconnexion, Default Folder X, Flip4Mac WMV, Hazel, Perian, Synergy, USB Overdrive, Version Cue CS3, Wacom Tablet.
Other Choice
There should be another choice for "I have no idea" because I view in alphabetical rather than category ... yes I know how to change it ...
Five:
3Dconnexion
10.
DefaultApps, Deja Vu, DivX, FilePathCM, Flip4Mac WMV, Font Reserve (ew!), iStat menus, Little Snitch, TextExpander (BEST PREFPANE EVAR), VC CS3.
12, probably more soon!
Default Apps, DivX, EDIROL UA-25, Environment Variables, Flip4Mac WMV, GarageRemote, Google Desktop, Growl, growliChat, MenuMeters, NuFile, Perian |
