Rocky's Bomb! Drive Sales Prediction: ...An example of Textbook-Perfect Market Analysis. I warned everyone here that Iomega's 40MB Bomb! drive sales would register relatively strong initial sales to Iomaniacs and a few tech-heads, then... Nothing. We witnessed this to a tee. -Nothing short of spectacular market analysis as indeed Iomega rang up $5 Million in Bomb! sales during the first Quarter (Bomb!'s rollout), and now we see a beyond pathetic $1 Million total Bomb! sales for the 2nd Quarter. This fiasco is worse than Buz. Far worse. Now, we are witnessing the same phenomenon with the PC Card Bomb! drive.- Relatively strong initial sales to Iomaniacs and a few tech-heads, then ...Nothing. And just imagine... Iomaniacs are pinning their hopes on this thing all over again. They just simply never learn.
