Non-Tech : Any info about Iomega (IOM)? -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

<<People really do use this publication and at this point may have more value than any tech rag publication. Nontechies will go here for info.>>

Exactly my point. ZIP is everywhere - in the trade rags, in Consumer Reports, all over the store shelves - but the financial press just doesn't understand that this is an emerging standard. They see the Sony drive on the horizon, or the SparQ, or whatever the next ZIP killer might be, and bash Iomega as if no one in their right mind would want a ZIP drive. The consumers know what they want - that's why they buy ZIP drives. The question is, when will the financial community wake up and realize this?

Alan; Excellant point. Rocky does not use this
thread to win arguments. He has never won
one. He uses it to give a negative atmosphere
to the thread as a whole. As long as we
respond to him--he is winning Big Time.
