When you buy a shiny new computer - or reinstall the operating system from scratch - your hard drive is like a large, empty space waiting to be loaded with dozens of different tools and applications for the most varied purposes. But what if you could save a lot of that space by embedding a few basic tools in just one program? You can easily do it with Firefox and its many extensions. Just take a look at the list below and see how many desktop apps you can replace with extensions.
