I downloaded 6.0.1 recently from Apple, onto my PC at work.  Took the files home,
transferred them onto my GS and decompressed them no problem with ShrinkIt.

I certainly don't remember having to do anything special with them first
(maybe a BINSCII, I can't remember), although I think there was a slight
corruption right at the end of the SystemTools2 disk.  It hasn't affected
me in anyway so far...
