tom,

this is significant:

<Another contender for the floppy replacement market is Iomega Corp., Roy, Utah, with its 3.5-inch 100-Mbyte Zip drive. "Zip technology is not burdened with support of old floppy technology," said Mike Lynch, worldwide OEM product line manager for the desktop Zip business. "It is not chained to an obsolete format. Forward compatibility is what the world needs."

Touting its installed base of more than 5 million Zip drives, Iomega is appealing to VARs and OEMs to consider its drives for integration.>

How much STIFF competition is there really for a Zip?
