Rocky,

Ya know, I don't understand what this
"HIFI" is but looking at the ATT grab
for the Cable modem trade, I'd say the
big players are looking for computers
to become a feature entertainment center
for home use. Steve Jobs said it won't
happen but I just don't know...it could
be that he has fallen behind. This is
bad news for Zip because people will need
hugh capacity for this kind of data stream
and a Zip disk is just a short pause before
we see 2 gig flash memory or something of
that nature take over the storage market.

If only I could see 10 years into the future
I'd come back and tell everyone what will
be the storage unit.

-John

ps Rocky, you work in entertainment and
data storage, how many bytes of data would
it take to put a feature length movie onto
a HDTV screen? Like 2 gigs or something?
