Ron, I think Imation is gonna lose this puppy. Anyone who has studied a little macroecon knows that to start the race a couple of years late is a handicap few can overcome. Even if I developed a floppy drive that held a gig of data, took 5 1/4 and 3.5" disks, and sang opera all the while selling for about $20.00, I would have a tough time finding customers (except for Rocky, another story). The installed base out there would be tough to convince, and the poten- tial new customers would wonder if they could be compatable. The LS-120 may be a great drive, but just like Betamax, faces a great uphill battle. However, new technology could be a big problem. -John
