College kids love it because it's free! Look what the music industry did to the DAT player. Taking away the public's ability to make digital copies of their CD's doomed that nifty piece of hardware to the professional studio.

Flop! Falls off Cliff at CNET The PC Card Iomega Flop! drive fell dramatically today to #442 at www.shopper.com. It seems as though all of the Iomaniacs ran out and bought all at once, but now that is all over. Castlewood Orb on the other hand has enjoyed a steady sales rise for the past few weeks: USB Orb continues its rise to #295 SCSI int Orb makes a move up to #467 EIDE Orb moves to #540 and SCSI ext Orb moves up to #611 Now that the supply of Iomaniacs and tech-heads has apparently gone dry for Iomega's Flop!, who is left to buy? No one. *USB Orb is a really cool product, as it is both an Ultra-SCSI drive and a USB drive... I will be able to use it on my older Mac AND my iMac! - the perfect portable external drive!
