I don't know what they pay, only that they consider the savings to be significant. It's their right to run their business how they think it best. > ...

You'll find at least 3 freeware alternatives. I primarily downloaded the unrar32 offered by the RAR authors, a freeware unpacker. Now I use UltimateZip, a superb all-round freeware tool that includes the newest RAR format. Someone just mentioned that the stuffit site also offers free RAR extractors. So, for no extra cost to anyone here, RITlabs can lesson their overheads and development costs. Good news all round I reckon. <moderator> When writing to this list, please modify your quote prefix to follow the accepted standard since the main software in use on this list does quote coloration as long as a '>' is used as the prefix. Also, it would help legibility if you would set your Calypso client to wrap lines at (say) column 74. </moderator> - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
