StuffIt for Windows won an HOC 100 Silver award in ceremonies held at the Comdex trade show in Las Vegas today. It was one of only three winners in the category of utility software. This year marks the 3rd annual award ceremony with winner selection based on value, performance, ease of use, innovation, and suitability for home offices. "Two out of three new businesses begin at home, and almost 20 million Americans today are at least part-time telecommuters. That makes home offices a hotter market than ever before," says Home Office Computing editor in chief Eric Grevstad. "We're pleased to salute StuffIt because it helps home-based workers succeed- instead of being aimed at corporate computing centers or family consumers, it's just right for today's work-at-home workforce."
