Catch-22
Pros: Stuffit Expander is *THE* standard compression/decompression software on the Mac platform, and has been around for years. If you have a Mac, you NEED this software...
Cons: The version available for download here is in .SIT format (compressed with Stuffit). My new Powermac G5 doesn't have any Stuffit decompression software on it... now, I'm trying to download Stuffit Expander to use on my Powermac, but the Stuffit software available requires that you already have Stuffit software on your computer. Discounting upgrades, how in the heck can *THAT* work?! I mean, if I had it, I wouldn't be downloading it. Since I don't have it, how can I use it to decompress itself? :-)
same issue
how did you sort out your problem catch-22?
I have the same problem and can't find anything to decompress the hqx file anywhere on the internet...
