    The ruu file is to restore to stock, so you can in theory download any, however of most interest to you is either the wwe (world wide English) or the one for your operator.
    All the other numbers in the file names are for the radio and hboot versions etc, be sure to read up if that hboot is rootable before you install it.
    In the rooting tutorials they recommend having the ruu in case something goes wrong or if you ever need to send the phone back.
    Personally I rooted via unrevoked, which was very easy on the Mac but there are good tutorials for all methods.
