James, they have been hyping LS-120 for almost 2 years. They have been putting them in boxes and selling them as addons for a year. No one wants them. They read regular floppies slower than a regular floppy drive and cost too much.

I was at CompUsa today and met a man whose 2 year old floppy drive died. He looked at the LS-120 and said at $150 it was ridiculous. He is going to buy a regular floppy via mail order for $30. Millions of people buy Zip just to have it, even though they have a perfectly good floppy drive. But there's a guy who won't even buy an LS-120 when his regular floppy quit.

Good luck on your IOM short.
