Hmmm.
I guess your wanting to have it install 'only Apple software' had me confused.

No, no. That's not it at all. Is it just me?
I had a problem months ago where the finder would crash over and over and would never fully load. I would have liked to reinstall the operating system, keeping all non-apple plugins
in their place. Right now, your options are to erase the entire system and install another, or to archive the system and install a new one. The problem with the archive is that you can't drag & drop files that non-apple programs create in the system folder because you can't find them all. Reinstalling all my applications takes the better part, it not a full day (for me anyways). What I would like is an option to overwrite files in the current system folder with new copies, but keep all third party extensions, preferences, and junk
where it is.
Third ones a charm. Sorry to hijack the thread.
