UPX is another packer for executables… well – I cannot imagine some user caring for the size of his executables in an era where a few minutes music take up some 5-10 megs, even excel.exe 's 9 megs seem very small at all… who really cares?

Upx is great. We don't all have broadband internet. I used it on Stoned Invaders with no problems.

It's good if I write a program for distribution - instead of giving a zip I can give the exe for not so intelligent users...
