Re: Zip will replace Floppy

(Here's why my case holds water)

Rocky, I'm now convinced that the Zip will soon replace the floppy. The real test came when I reached for one of my AOL floppy disks to set my drink down on, and discovered I had none left to use. I was forced to use a Zip disk and discovered that if you open up the Zip's plastic case before setting your drink down, it will collect the condensation and thus serves as an excellent secondary water damage back-up device. When people get wind of this, that tie-ratio should rocket (unless Nomai copies the idea). Well, I'm off to write AOL and let 'em know I will only accept 100% Certified Zip disks from now on as they hold 70 times more water than a floppy.

Regards - Dale
