Why does everyone delete Garageband??????????

[ppcg4mac]

I have bought 5 G4s (4 were eMacs), and EVERY ONE had garageband deleted, im on the verge of frustration as that is my absolute part of iLife! I cannot afford a disk of iLife '06, and dont want to pirate it, any ideas?

sorry if i sound like an idiot

Many folks don't need it and deleting the application and it support files saves gigabytes of space. If memory serves me eMacs didn't have the most robust hard drives so recouping a few gigabytes does go a long way.

I don't use it and it takes up a lot of space....so I delete it.

So, iLife shipped with those computers, and since you own the computers, technically you already own iLife, so I were you, I would not feel the least bit guilty if I were to get a copy of iLife from a friend and install it.

I'm assuming you did not get the original install disks when you bought these computers?

The only part of iLife that I have ever used is iPhoto and that is only to sync photos to my iPhone. All the other apps are worthless to me.

I thought Garageband is not allowed to remove because I tried last week. I have no need for this I am DEAF.

If you have one half of iLife, downloading and installing it again, only checking GarageBand should work.

No, all i got were the power cords and a 17" Apple Studio Display (CRT).(the latter with the Gig-E G4)

Amazon.com has several 'open box' offers available for under $10 including postage. (I assume you need iLife '06 based on CPU speed?)

Five G4 owners != everyone. They obviously didn't need it.
