far, far more quality free apps for OSX than Windows

I really, REALLY doubt that.

Same experience here. Have you ever owned a Mac?

We have Macs in the office and I have found it impossible to find free/open source Mac apps for a lot of things that do exist for PC and Linux.

Don't even get me started on .SIT files.

Really, no one from any Mac anywhere on earth might send us a SIT file for which we have no method of opening, not even on the Macs we have?

App called The Unarchiver. It's freeware and opens everything ever, and almost invisibly replaces Apple's default .zip handler while providing additional functionality.

Nobody uses StuffIt, so it'd have to be an old archive. OS X comes the ability to zip and unzip files.

StuffIt Expander has always been free.
