>>What do you think it will do to his sub-$1,000 main processor when IOM brings the 40 MB Zip disk to market at $3.95. <<

It is exactly wild guesses presented as fact like this example that give serious Wall Streeters the impression that IOM is nothing more than an Interent Hype Stock. As a matter of fact, Iomega had originally planned, I believe, a 25MB Zip disc as well as 100MB. They didn't do it.

But in a way, your suggestion does make sense. Iomega keeps falling farther and farther behind other company's drive capacities, and the upcoming 40MB Vapor! drive is no exception. A 40MB Zip would be another perfect example.
