  7-Zip Portable

  Excellent! Universally useful with minimal fuss and requirements

  by: weyrleader on 22-May-2008 08:11:43 AM

  Pros: Multi-format capable (zip, rar, ace, etc) built-in; Lightweight, uses little disk space and system resources; Fast, even in the highest compression rating (often better than WinRAR's & WinZip's best - from my experience at least) it is reasonably fast and at lower compression settings it flies; Free, the price can't be beat; Multi-OS, can be used on Linux, Windows (9x, 2k/XP and Vista), and OS X; automatic and customizable sizing for breaking an archive into pieces when compressing (can make them all CD-ROM sized to burn to disc, or Zip-100 sized, or just to 136MB if you wanted to); and there's additional "plug-in" type options on their site for a range of other formats and features.

  Cons: The OS X version is less GUI-capable (oddly since OS X is VERY GUI-centric) but there's an "EZ 7z" application/add-on to fix that. Other than this - no draw backs. It's simply a great (de)compression and archiving tool that should be a "must have" for everyone with files to archive or compress for sending across the wire.
