So, a long time ago, I tried using 7zip for extracting a zip file or similar. I don't think it was a RAR file at the very least. I noticed that 7zip was slower than WinRAR, which is what I had always used since it was the first I'd heard of a program that could unzip files.

Fast forward a few years, I had some money and bought a WinRAR license, just because I liked the program that much.

Fast forward a few more years, and I use Nanazip on Windows and Ark on KDE/Fedora.

I will always remember the book stack icon for zips/RARs/etc. fondly and just how much faster (again way way back in the day). Multipart RARs were how I got a lot of stuff back in the day, even larger mods!

Anyway, I know it is popular to hate on WinRAR, but for me, it will always be remembered fondly for what it was. :,-)

Pokemon Unbound is the best Pokemon game I have ever played. It only sucks because now I'm playing through other ROM hacks like Pokemon Prism, Pokemon Brown, Pokemon Glazed (Unofficial patched) and realizing that they will NEVER be as good as Unbound was. That is the only downside to Pokemon Unbound! :-P
