Rocky - I'm in the process of catching up on the last several hundred messages and just had to comment on this one. It's obvious that very few people read your posts - I could find no reference to anything said in the conference call about 100mm zip disks having been sold at that point. Though that conference call sure is a good indication of how inept IOM's management was. My, my. How short memories are around here. In January 1998, the following post documents highlights from the infamous 1/22/98 Conference Call with KE. Among the items: 12 Million Zip drives sold 100 Million Zip disks = over 8 disks per drive. KE also warned in that CC tie ratios were falling, and they would advertise to try and prop up the tie ratio (remember the Super Bowl ad anyone?) Message 3236679;
