Mac X Panther Improved utilities
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From version 10.0, in the access route Applications/Utilities we have found a set of applications that allow to monitories and to administer our system. Panther presents/displays deep modifications (always to better) in many of them. The old utilities “Viewfinder of Processes” and “Monitor of CPU” have merged to give to light the new “Monitor of Activity”, that reunites of advisable form and in only window, a listing of the active processes of the system as well as the consumption of resources of the computer. Of this form we can know how many active processes have an application, what memory consumption supposes and what resources of the CPU demand. In addition, the inferior part of the window of the Monitor of Activity allows us to consult the load of the CPU, the use of memory, the activity and space of Hard Disco and the activity of Network of the computer.
The “utility of Discs” is now more flexible than ever. In order to begin, it assumes the functions of the missing “Disk Copy” (the utility that allowed to duplicate discs or to create archives dmg). It also incorporates a button to allow the use of the “registry” (journaling) in system disks, which as opposed to supposes a guarantee of recovery possible errors in the file system produced by a sudden loss of energy (we go, a blackout). Finally, now it is possible to create a disc image of any volume as a backup and to recover it in case of wanting to return to a previous version of the system. The profile of the system of Apple (menu Apple/About this Mac/More information) much more fast and is ordered, and the shown information is based on standard XML, reason why he is very simple to compile it, to select it, to copy it and to stick it. With him you can consult the serial number of your computer, the installed memory, the capacity and model of your hard disk, the type of graphical card and its memory, etc.
