So is SparQ a Zip-killer? Don't bet on it. Iomega's Zip has already been installed on so many computers that it is unlikely to be upstaged. Moreover, Iomega has deals with major PC makers to pre-install Zip, which is likely to keep the Zip momentum intact. In other words, in the near future expect your computer to come with a pre-installed Zip drive in addition to a 1.44 MB floppy drive. =========================== Sounds like a pretty uninformed, or perhaps self-serving, comment to me. People and the oem's switched from 1.2 floppies to the 1.44's without a major hassle. The oems can drop the Zip drives as quickly as they added them when something better comes along. Then add something truly useful like the Sparq.
