Thanks for the report, Tom.

You did say one thing that I couldn't help commenting on.

"My guess is that, if the Zip weren't around and
didn't have a huge head start, the LS-120 would
have made it as the floppy replacement. Its
developers must be frustrated in the extreme."

I think the developers of the LS-120 are probably feeling perfectly fine about how things are going, since they are the same people who developed Zip and Jaz. (Iomega sold the technology to Compaq in '94.) But I'll bet the marketers of the LS-120 are going to end up pretty frustrated.
