It's ironic that zip is more threatened by the LS-120 than the EZ-135. The LS-120 pales in comparison to both, very badly. It's compaq's stupid brute force that's making it happen. I'm not really sure it can happen.

IBM, HP, Packard Bell, Micron, Dell, and Sony vs. Compaq & 3M

Which carries more weight?
Compaq will some day be putting zips on their machines :)

What's this about potential alliance with Nintendo? Strange rumors.

I have read somewhere on SI that the Zip200 will not only be backwards compatible with zip100, but also with floppies. This does not sound correct to me. Any validity?
