Robert >>Sounds like a pretty uninformed, or perhaps self-serving, comment to me. People and the oem's switched from 1.2 floppies to the 1.44's without a major hassle. The oems can drop the Zip drives as quickly as they added them when something better comes along.<< Kinda reminds me of the "local bus" phenomenon. PC manufactures shipped computers with this bus until the PCI bus was ready. As soon as it was the manufactures switched over to PCI. I don't claim to know which format will win, but IMHO IOM should be very worried about the fact that the LS-120/Japanese drives are coming. Regards - Emory

Robert,,,All these new less than $999.00 systems buyers are going to be looking for the SparQ drive. I have not found one of them with a pre installed IOM drive unit. I care less if IOM has a drive loaded in a couple of PC. Buyers want a outside SparQ or Quest drive to back up there systems load there music or come over to my system and load my system with work. Many companies are using there people at home, I find the SparQ system to bridge these gaps and make information portable. I have loaded my SparQ system last week, went to espanola NM, installed a Sparq system there and all is well. We loaded my research file on his system for review. What a simple way to go. I have e-mailed a great idea to Syquest to be added into there inventory. What will it do, sell more Syquest units.
