Font viewer?

I have a disgusting amount of fonts, i use only a handful, i have say 100 or so i would keep for designing purposes, the rest are absolutely horrid.

trouble is i got all of my fonts from very large font packs, which seemed like a good idea at the time, but i believe they are slowing my computer down too much now, particularly photoshop, which is a major pain in the ass.

can anyone suggest a good font viewer (or some such program) to help me uninstall all tha crap i dont need, without having to go and open every single font file to see which i would like to keep, and those i would like to bin?

thanks,
raz.

Don't install tons of fonts. They take up a lot of system memory.
Use FontExplorer. There was a link posted in the apps section a while ago.
