John,

That is what's so frustrating....the missed opportunities. The company had a "once in a life time" chance and they were not able to strike while "the iron was hot".

>>It's a damn shame actually. IOM should be a powerhouse in their niche.<<

But John, Iomega is a powerhouse in their niche. Sadly however, the niche for removable magnetic storage is falling by the wayside and becoming unimportant as newer, better, and more versatile technologies like CD-RW, wireless Interent, and LAN storage options abound and intrude on Iomega's turf.

Iomega and their ancient technology are caught in a timewarp. They think it is still 1989.

Wake up.
