Rocky, my previous data gaff aside, your statement "How can we be sure what you report is accurate?" is LAUGHABLE! -Spank

>>Allen, I would like to give you the benefit of a doubt. I'm sure you are generally an honest, upstanding citizen of these United States. However, you are also an IOM shareholder with a vested interest in seeing Nomai's Zip disc fail. How can we be sure what you report is accurate? A few tosses against a wall will do wonders for disc reliability, don't you think? Can we have a promise that Rover won't be doing his own product testing before you get a chance to?<< Rocky - I can only state my intention to test the Nomai disks fairly and that I will report the results honestly. I will do nothing to the Nomai disks that I will not also do to the Iomega Zip disks which I will use as a control set. Any individual who reads what I have to say can decide for himself or herself whether I have been fair. By the way, I do not have a dog to assist me with product testing, and my cats have proven to be indifferent to most computer peripherals and media. I got the disks by calling Anne Abuhakmeh at Nomai's US marketing office. The disks are supposed to be available to members of the press. I told her who I was and that I was involved on this thread. She had never heard of it, but after a brief explanation agreed to send the disks. Anne Abuhakmeh can be reached at 408-542-5915. - Allen
