i'm in favor of leaving the.sit behind, but not adopting the.zip format on macs. I use both mac and pc computers and knowing that i am downloading a mac file vs. a pc file is kind of important, and since the file extension is the easiest way to know for sure, losing a mac specific file format would be akin to removing the.tar.gz files from existence.
And if you've gone to the trouble of creating an installer and asking for the password, then recording it, and affecting some part of the os with it, don't you think they would have thought of some bullsh*t to add to the info tab. I've had a PC for a while and there are plenty of spyware apps that put regestry entries in that have false and important sounding names.
