>To all you people that hate ZIP's out there, do you still use 1.44 floppies? Do you stock up on them as well?<

Why would someone hate ZIP's? And yes I use floppies to store .txt everyday, and stocked up at Computer S..ty on Sony disks. With the rebates I got 100 for $3.97.
I find using floppy to store .txt and small apps or fonts to be handy. If I where to transfer them to .ZIP I could reduce my storage space but increase my exposure to loss.
But it shouldn't be a point of argument, use the medium to fit the need.
