About any reasonable mainstream (de)compression tool for Windows can
handle .tgz or .tar.gz as well as .zip
Some can do .rar or .ace or ...

But the point is that there's allways an extra program required.

All versions before XP do allways need an extra program. So we can
choose what we want.

But with XP (which, by now, most of the Windows users use) you get an
decompression tool included in the Windows explorer. And that tool can
only handle .zip

BTW: of all Windows versions you only want to use 2000 or XP (= 2000.1).
The rest is either unstable (95, 98, ME) or doesn't run modern software (NT)

CU,
Christian
