I have owned my zip drive for over a year now. I will not buy zip disks until they get down into the $7-$8 price range or lower. I wanted to transfer all my original software supplied on diskettes to zip disks, but have not found a way to do it. Now the hard drives are so massive that a Jaz drive is needed to back them up.

Hopefully the prices will come down and drive disk demand up.

I still like the concept of the zip drive as a replacement for the diskette drive. Something must be looming on the horizon (in terms of diskette drive obsolescence), as you can basically get diskettes for free now, after rebates.
