So, in other words, you respect a service that is allowed to get away with re-writing history to serve their own needs, and not acknowledge their GROSS errors in predicting sales in published high-$$$ reports? Their 1996 predictions for 1998 and 1999 are shameful. One only needs to look at those reports and then look at REALITY to see that if one bought the 1996 reports and then invested $$$ in the market speculating on those reports concerning flexible disk drives (Zip), removable disk drives (Jaz), one has SERIOUSLY erred.

Disk Trend now offers the lame excuse that because Sony screwed up, that sales fell short (more than 40%!)? Please! Disk Trend screwed up, plain and simple.
