- Nope. StuffIt Deluxe will ALWAYS come with SpaceSaver. We consider
- Deluxe the "Complete Compression Solution", in that it includes not only
- archival compression but also transparent compression. There are also all
- of the tools that you are faimiliar with and a bunch of new ones!
-
- We will also be selling SpaceSaver separately for users who don't
- need the full archival compression that Deluxe provides (SpaceSaver offers
- some simple archival compression however). SpaceSaver (which also includes
- our Magic Menu & StuffIt Engine products) will list for $59.95, with a
- street price of about $35. (this is US, no Matt I don't know how much it
- will be in teh UK ;).
