Ken, I was in and out of Iomega three times last year and lost significant ground each time. Back then the ride was pretty wild and I had never had such a hot stock before, so I got skittish easily.

I had originally bought the stock in March '95 when the Zip first came out. I had also bought my first Zip on the first weekend they appeared. It was lucky I did since I didn't see any Zips for a long time after that. Anyway I bought it because it was the coolest thing I had seen in the computer world for a long time because there was finally a high density removable I could afford. I reasoned the Zip just had to sell like hotcakes - it certainly has done that.

Anyway I am thanking you for reminding me to hang in there - I need that reminder every once in a while. If I had stayed in throughout '95, I would have well over 3,000 stocks. As it is I still have over 1,000 but I remember longingly what I could have had.
