>>My wife is a cartoonist and illustrator. She frequently delivers work to magazines on Zip disks. The files are too big for floppies, but still fit comfortably on a Zip. Often, the magazines don't return the Zip disks. She finds that irritating, but it would really piss her off if she was using 33 dollar SparQ disks.<<

All well and good, but your wife would be better off printing her own CD-Roms and sending those off to her clients. There are at least 3 things great about this:

1) 650MB CD-ROm media is way cheap--try about $3 now.

2) The CD burners are getting cheaper now--about the same as a Jaz drive.

3) You get the satisfaction knowing that they can't re-use your CD's for their own selfish purposes when they don't return them to you.

Zip seems to be not exactly the right solution for her.
Just trying to save your wife money.
