>> A friend from IBM in San Jose (in DD development) told me everybody (that means engineers and technicians) there has a ZIP. He didn't know the tie ratio. << GM -- just for a bit of historical perspective, recall that a year or so ago it was a main bear tenet that Zip/iom would never crack the serious business market for several reasons: Zip was a novelty toy for techies, big boys would wait for a bigger, badder, and better Zip Killer that was bound to come along soon, IOM wasn't respected as company, etc. Interesting how so many of those informed pronouncements from the past have become rotting road kill on IOM's drive to success. momentum and direction.
