Young asked, "Why the combo? For those who want it, they can still install a 1.44FD and an internal Zip in the same computer for significantly less cost than the LS-120."

Yes, that's right. In fact I think I said that in my post. I, for one, still use both Zips and floppies. Given that virtually every single PC and Mac (and Sun, etc.) on the planet has a floppy drive, whereas only 2 million have Zips, I may need to retain that compatibility for a while. But I am perfectly happy to have both drives. There is plenty of room in most PCs for both.
