"The funny thing is that once that widget is there, according to Apple, you CANNOT remove it."

I don't know where your source got this idea, but it wasn't from Apple. You remove widgets by opening the /Library/Widgets folder and dragging the unwanted widget to the Trash. (Ed note. And if you read the article that becomes clear, though if you look at the Tiger help section you'll note Apple's assertion along similar 'unremovable' lines. )

When did reporters stop checking the assertions made by the strangers they interview? (Ed. Perhaps about the same time readers stopped reading articles to the end...) Sorry (Ed note. Think nothing of it, we'll let you off.)
