OT Marketing, & more.. Wasn't the plane the used in the commercial the same kind that crashed a couple of weeks ago? I think they should have an ad showing someone trying to use a large capacity removable disk in a few different situations and having those with whom the data would be shared berate them for not having a Zip like the rest of the planet. Then show all the shiny happy Zip people enjoying their leisure time while the non-Zip dude is busy copying his stuff onto a gillion floppies while trying to meet a deadline. Here's a nice disclaimer from the KLIC thread #2327: All the standard disclaimers, usual and unusual...in it for myself, was in over two years ago; and, looking for a place to get back in, high risk, buy and stay at your own peril, do your own research and read your own tea leaves, do your own hypothesizing, do your own guessing and pencil work, row your own boat, be responsible for your own actions, nothing presented here is a recommendation to Buy, Hold, or Sell anything, contribute to the discussion by presenting an articulated rational point of view based on facts at hand, beat your own drum, do your own thing, you are responsible for your own decisions, admit mistakes openly and correct same as soon as possible, observe others's intellectual property and copy rights,respect each other's opinions, etc., ad nauseam...and, if you're unsure of anything here, go look it up, go research it for yourself...in the end, if you're the one with the bag on a "Snipe Hunt", you deserve what you get...nothing!
