Ida, You'll have to excuse some of my friends here, who sometimes mistake ignorance for stupidity. I happen to believe that everyone deserves an explanation. From you repeated comparisons of IOMG to computer companies you seem to have the mistaken idea that IOMG is a computer company. This is simply not the case. IOMG is not making computers they make removable disks, the best removable disk now on the market or likely to be in the market for quite some time to come. As is becomming more apparent with each OEM agreement signed the trend seems clear that IOMG will become the standard floppy drive in PCs in the next year or so. Stop a minute IDA clear your prejudgtice and think about this. Every floppy disk used in the world in a few years will likely have IOMG's name stamped on it, or will be made under license to IOMG. There is a pretty a good margin on the disks, if you back through some of the other posts on this board by people like Ken, Young, Erik, and others they have laid out the facts rather clearly. IDA I bought this stock last fall after seeing a zip disk operate and how highly the owners prized their drives. Since you must be somewhat computer literate to have posted here, you should try one these drives for yourself before you so hastily pass judgement. If you did I believe you find that yes it is worth the small risk to get the great return.
