Young,

Holy cow!!! Am watching power lunch and Joe Kernan just went into an
IOmega discussion. He gave the comments of the JP Morgan analyst who
initiated coverage (paraphrases)

"IOmega is unique in the industry, has razor and blades...proprietary
... emerging as the standard... is confident there will be a flurry of
OEM announcements before the end of the summer as PC makers jockey to
set up Christmas sales. The analysts estimates are $1.35B in revenues
for 1996. Earnings $.52 in 1996, $.87 in 1997."

Then Joe went into some calculations about what that PE is and said
something along the lines that companies growing at that rate may deserve
higher multiples. Yada, yada, yada. Neil Cavuto(??) chimes in with
what I thought were wome positive type of comments (not exactly sure,
started typing right away). All in all, seems to me that now that one
analyst from one well respected investment company says good things, the
CNBC guys start changing their tune.... Wonder if this report will have any
effect on the stock price within the next 15 minutes??

More later

Jay

P.S. heard in the background something about IOMG not being a PRST.

LONGER on IOMG
