Hi Gary, It appears than whenever things are going well for IOM,(close at 33) someone writes a destructive, fallacious, vicious article to knock the price of the stock down temporarily and possibly get the shorts out. The storage market is huge and every co. wants a piece of the action. Also Barron's has a "hate" on IOM and so does ole' Herbie G. from San Fran. These idiots write aricles to sell papers and they'll say anything without doing the proper research. They should be writing for the "National Enquirer", rather than a respected financial journal. I am a little dismayed about the article but I think IOM will come through in the end. It's a tough co. that has overcome many obstacles. SR

Gary, You did a great job of responding to Barrons. You covered a lot of very valid points and I'm glad you sent that post.

However, I think our enemy is Sony, and Iomega needs to respond if the threat is real. That is the big question, is Sony selling vaporware or are they developing a viable product? They have deep pockets and could pose a real threat if they have a good product that can be produced in volume.
