From a techical point of view, I just think that Jazz and Zip are not good. I mean, I don't understand why the big fuss is all about. Why do people buy drives that are slower, holds less disk space, and cost more money than a Hard Drive? Tell me that? I don't understand people's logic. If people want portablity, why don't they buy a cd-r? I mean, it's a lot better in my opinion. The Jazz 1 gig, cartige cost 100 bucks. The CD-R blank cost 5 bucks for 650 megs, so all together 10 bucks for 1.2 gig? If speed was what people were looking for, A Hard drive is much faster and much cheaper than a Jazz Drive. If it was me, I want a combination of hard drive and a CD-R. I simply do not understand why people get Jazz Drives.
