Some thought on reading the Nomai post from Dr. Iomega <Responding today, Nomai said said the tests were conducted by a third-party but under Iomega's solicitation ... > Just as the tests done by Nomai's 2 independent labs were done under Nomai's solicitation. < and using the Laptop Zip drive that is designed for portable PCs.> So Nomai admits their disks don't work for the latest Zip drives. Great! < Nomai claims that the drive has been modified to reject the cartridge. > Poor dears. Guess they'll just have to license like everyone else. <Nomai claims compatibility with all other Zip drive types was established by the German computer magazine c't > Anyone have an idea what their reputation is. PC mags vary greatly here in the US as to quality of review.

<<Nomai claims that the drive has been modified to reject the cartridge.>> there it is. that's all they have to do, just reject that crap outta there. this nomai thing is just a joke. anyway, iomega's pe is now 33. with a pe of 45 it wil give us a stock price of 40.5 by the end of january. this week zack's report has a rating of strong buy on iomega. if you have the money to buy more this a christmas gift. thank you shortie.
