Actually, I'm bullish on IOM. It's true that there are a lot of other products out there that beat the pants off of IOM's ZIP. However, the ZIP has gotten market-wide acceptance. Everyone at my company has one, and all of the top of the line computers are shipping with internal ZIPS. The ZIP has become the new standard. Soon the floppies will fade, but it'll be a long while before another product will be ready to compete with the ZIP. I think the ZIP is here to stay. There are a lot of better shorting opportunities out there. Happy Trading ....
