Friend of mine in the UK bought a Zip last week. He bought his for GBP139 (=~$US217) and picked up a pack of six disks for GBP84 (=~$US131, about $US22 per disk). The highest price he saw (he found several vendors next to each other, all selling Zips, and he wasn't offered any other product) was GBP159 (=~$US249) for the drive, and GBP15 (=~$US25) per disk. He didn't know what he was looking for when he went out - just something to back up his (company-owned) 486 laptop. As you can see, lots of people buy lots of disks when they purchase the drive, and if Europe has gone well this quarter, IOMG's overall margin might be able to expand somewhat.

Marie (long IOMG, of course!)
