Have you gone to Computer Shows? Do you really think the 3.5" will disappear and everyone will use Zip disks? I don't buy that for a minute, as much as we all would like that to happen. The disks are to expensive for most of the small programs and shareware stuff big companies just throw around for free, like AOL software diskette that is everywhere. Big companies just throw programs and samples around for free. All it costs them is bulk postage and maybe a few cents for a 3.5 floppy that they buy by the thousands. You can't do that kind of almost free marketing with $20. zip disks They are great for Backup and mobility, but they will not supplant the venerable 3.5" Just IMHO. - Anyone agree or disagree?
