RE: Price and Cost of OEM Drives.

Ken,

>> Therefore, I'd be willing to bet the Dell pays about $47 per ZIP drive to Iomega. <<

Interesting numbers that you've come up with for OEM drives. I actually have some very similar numbers in my model.

My best guess in my model is that in Q4 Iomega received about $50 per OEM drive and that their costs were $47.50.

I could be off on my numbers, but I think it's very reasonable to assume that Iomega is selling OEM drives within a few percent of cost.
