One (the one in /Library) is the Python.org install, which I avoid religously on the Mac, for exactly these reasons. You should be able to delete it without problems, and also delete the Python executables and similar stuff in /usr/local/bin/. I say you *should* be able to, but I'm always leery of this. Try just removing all the read and execute privileges first, and see how things go. Then you can actually delete it when/if you need space. Bill
