"Sooner or later, this CD-RW will become a standard in all new PC's.<snip> Can you give me a reason why ,at that time, a user would want to buy a redundant storage device such as the ZIP drive ?"

Well that's the question, isn't it. Sooner? or Later? Something new always comes along, to be sure. Has anyone actually had a look at CD-RW? Based on my (minimal) experience & reading about the slip-ups that can occur when burning CDs, I would feel hesitant to invest in such a device right now, but perhaps this is an out-of-date perception. Anyone here rolled his or her own CD?
