MH: Game Plan for IOM?
JS: On strategy to make Zip standard. On strategy to transform from retail to OEM market supplier. Volumes of Zips shipped up 40% but margins are lower due to OEM vs Retail mix.

MH: How do you make a profit?
JS: First, do not sell at a loss. But, on drives margin is smaller than on disks.

JC: ARe you buying IOM stock on the open market?
JS: My salary and the boards compensation are only in the form of stock, no cash at all.

MH: Give me exact tie ratio?
JS: No, it's competitive info. But tie in not as significant as it used to be when less units were shipped. Now with large numbers of drives shipped a slightly lower tie-in ratio is acceptable.

Cramer did not jump in, but looked pissed. I wonder if Hanes had a stun gun out ready to zap him.

Faber just reporting IOM at 5.. and Jim chimed in 'it's melting, it's melting...'
