I thought the main aim behind archiver programs were to reduce (a)
storage and (b) net-traffic. Anthing wchich does it better is good.

As was previously said, Compactor and the BinHQX Da is an unbeatable
combination.

As for StuffIt Deluxe ... BLYECCH!!! (IMNSHO!) SI Classic is faster
anyway! The only thing SI Deluxe really has going for it is JPEG - 
I can do it standalone anyway. There is no reason to have everything
in one package, y'know ...
