According to their upgrade notice, Stacker 3.0 will have
StackerAnywhere (TM) which allows you to compress a floppy and
use the compressed floppy on systems that doesn't have Stacker.

As for the Windows interface, it is suppose to have a nifty
display to show how much of your disk is in use.

But, I don't think you'll see the compression is any better.  If I'm
wrong, I'll be pleasantly surprised.
