Syqt was superior...unfortunately, they had lousy PR....just like AAPL vs MSFT. That is up to debate. I've seen the Usenet news groups filled with people complaining about lost data due to dropped SyQuest cartridges, and Jeff is right, Iomega beat the hell out of them on many fronts. SyQuest refused to lower their prices for too long, and Iomega took advantage of the lapse. SyQuest was too slow to innovate in a timely manner. If anything has ever been proven in computer universe, it's that price is King. Apple Computer learned that lesson so late it almost killed them. Rest in peace, SyQuest.
