I checked out micronpc.com today, and I looked for systems with Zip standard. To my surprise, none of the few Millennia systems I looked at included a Zip standard. Micron used to be the biggest supporter of the Zip, and not long ago nearly all Millennia models had Zip standard. There was even a report recently that Micron would include the Zip standard and make the floppy optional. What has happened??

I take this as a very bad sign.

5 mins later: I just looked at a couple more models I couldn't look at earlier because the connection was so slow, and those did include Zips standard. Still, it looks like only about half of the models include Zip standard, and this does seem like a decrease.
