The problem is that some manufacturers ("I'm looking at YOU Canon and
Xerox!") still insist on putting their drivers into .sit files. That
was why I had to install the thing on mine.
That said, Stuffit is like HP...you gotta ride herd very closely on
their installers or they'll stash stuff all over the damn place.
Always look at what's offered in a Custom Install to see if you can
only install the bits you need.
