Boy, would this article be helpful if I had a Mac, and Apple had just released a new version of their operating system. At least there is a new operating system version — as if you could have missed that piece of news in the last couple weeks.

Every year it is the same: you rush to the Apple Store, grab a shiny box with a big “X” on it, zoom back home, crack it open, inhale the sweet silicon smell that seems to ooze from about any Apple product you buy (seriously, this stuff is addictive), and, blissfully, pop in that tempting DVD into your reader to install the latest version of your favorite operating system.

Well, let’s make this year different, shall we? Let’s make it better. With just a little bit of organization and some light thinking, we can turn this relatively mundane step (installing an operating system) into a pure moment of machine-tweaking, Mac-optimizing hypomania.
