RE: Continuing longs

Sheila and bateh,

No, you're not the only longs. I'm still here, trying to get
twenty per cent a year out of this company for my money. I think
Linda Pearson is also still with us. And Jak! It's going to be
a long haul for us all, I'm afraid. For my money, blowing
a hundred million on glitzy ads instead of just lowering
prices to under a hundred bucks was a big, big mistake.
On that one, I'm with Dave the Reseller a hundred per cent.
And I'm with Truff that the split sucked. The people in
charge at Iomega have lost their focus. We're in a competitive
market. The best product at the cheapest price will win. Buttons
and clickers and cutesy ads aren't, in the end, what matters.
We want a cheap replacement for the floppy, and a cheap
replacement for flash memory in cameras. End of story.

Cheers nonetheless, Tom (longer IOM than ever before, alas)
