>>There is a reason why 97% of all new computers sold DO NOT have Zip in them! Most people have little need for a device that holds more than a few Excel or Wordperfect files. And, some users do not trust saving too much valuable data on one source. <<

Of course, this argument works against all removable storage devices, not just the Zip. If people don't need this kind of storage, then why it this such a fast-growing product area? Why are so many companies trying to enter it?
