RE: IBM Microdrive

I see this product failing right alongside Iomega's Vapor! The race is already won in this niche. And it is safe, rugged Flash Technology that has won the battle already. With the disc drives, there us always the possibility of damage to read/write heads and discs while in use. And due to Iomega Vapor!'s unsealed environment, dust contamination will be a major problem.

The IBM drive is a failure waiting to happen, as is Iomega' Vapor!
