Ken, >> 1. Who was the first to call SparcQ the Jaz killer. (It was, and it killed Iomega and it's stock in 1998)? << I think it's more accurate to call SparQ a SyQuest killer. It hurt Iomega for a short period of time, but they survived. >> 2. Who else (besides myself) pointed out the flaws, with backing data, on the ZIP OEM model? << The transition to the OEM model was the setback. On an ongoing basis, I contend that the OEM model will work. >> 3. Who first told us about ORB? Superdisk? << And don't forget HiFUD, Caleb, etc. Superdisk is the only one that's even come close to making an impact on Iomega. The others have all pretty much been vapor. >> 4. Who discussed mini-disk & flash vs. CLIK? << Arguing just one side of the story... >> 5. Who actually read the CLIK! manual? << A number of people. I don't recall Rocky being one, but I could be wrong. >> 6. Who poured over the CLIK! datasheet and compared to Flash? << Pointing out only the disadvantages and none of the advantages. >> 7. LS-120? Click of death? << The LS-120 (Superdisk) has a Click of Death problem? I think I heard something about that. Rocky has laid out only one side of the story, and is often inflammatory. He'll stumble across a fact once in a while, but even a broken clock is right twice a day. - Michael Coley - bible-reading.com
