One thought about the Imation drive. I Imagine that they had a good spike in sales due to the matching color and design scheme for the iMac. Great marketing on their part, most people probably bought one because it "matched" or it "looked cool". Iomega should take a lesson from this, the USB zip still looks like a zip , it is starting to look dated. One thing going for it is now that the iMac will no longer be available in Bondi Blue, Blueberry, the number one color, is a closer match to the USB zip than the Imation drive! A stylish new drive should be in order as the sucess of the iMac shows that style as well as substance can matter, clear matching disks would be cool too, In five fruity colors of course. Perhaps if when the introduce a USB zip 250 it could be a restyle so it will look cooler than the HiFD when it ships.
