niggerochi, >>I'm really surprised how so many people are taking the Sony drive so lightly.<< Who's taking it lightly? >>it didn't take Gateway 2000 too long to drop the Zip and include the LS120 as optional in some computers.<< Zip drives are offered as optional on most Gateway systems....yes, internal too. IRQ difficulties have been worked out. We're all well aware of Sony's pre-eminence in consumer electronics, their deep pockets, etc. but I'll wait on making a judgement as to the threat posed by Sony's drive when I see it for sale and at what price. Think they'll be able to get that Sony drive to $100? It sure is a magical price point. <<Granted that these are companies the have been around a while and have not succeeded in overthrowing the Zip, but the point is that all these competitors are chipping away at IOM's market share.<< How do you know this? >>I still don't understand why the stock split.<< The stock split is immaterial. It shouldn't matter to investors. Philip
