RE: Iomega in China "...the demand for Iomega drives has increased significantly in the last year in China." Any idea how many people own computers in China? I would think that the number is increasing very rapidly. I read a story about 8 or 10 months ago that Intel was giving away millions of "Intel Inside" glow in the dark stickers in China. People there were putting them on their bicylcles. They were seen as a statis symbol, people there want anything Western. The article said that while most most of the people interviewed didn't own a computer at that time, they all knew the Intel name and would buy that brand and would look for it when they bought a PC. Looks like Iomega's rapid growth will continue for several more years.
