really loved StuffIt. I paid for several Deluxe releases and was an

But times have changed. Except for decompression, StuffIt provides
little of interest to OS X users, IMO. We're going to .zip and .tar
now...
The OP asked about the Classic version (I think 7 is the last Classic
version). It's quite useful if you're on a Classic-only machine.
I'll make the same case against the classic version. Expander is
ample. Add DropStuff if you really need it. The decode for other
formats, uu, yenc and rar especially, are slow and buggy in the
classic Expander.
