aint it the same as windows ? a control panel and add/remove programs ?

In nearly every case, you only have to do one thing when you no longer want to run a program on your Mac OS X computer: You drag it to the trash.
  Notice the simplicity? When you've decided you no longer want to keep a program, you locate it and drag it to the trash can. There's nothing to uninstall. You simply get rid of it.
  Did I hear you say you're not sure where any of your programs are? Apple took pity on those of us who are too busy to locate anything in all the hiding places on our hard drives, so it added a feature that makes removing programs absurdly easy. You simply Ctrl-Click (or right click) on the alias for an application -- on the icon in the dock, for example -- and click "Show Original." A window will open showing the original application.
  Should you drag that to the trash now? Maybe. And then again maybe not. Stick with me for a while. I need to explain a dichotomy in Mac OS X.
  There are two basic kinds of programs for OS X.
  One kind is old-fashioned, consisting of a program file (or "application," as Apple calls it) and possibly a few other files. When you want to get rid of a program of this kind, you should get rid of all its files.
