The reliability of Stuffit indeed is not very well. On my Mac Plus I end up
with bombs a lot (no INITs, installation according to manual; I even gave it
more memory in MultiFinder). I went back to my Stuffit 1.5.1.

I also think that Stuffit has become much too large. I believe this thing is
meant to compress and decompress... Well, I prefer Compacter now (it is faster,
and has a higher compression rate). The user interface is not so good though..
