That's the second time that has been on. It had no effect the first time (this spring). Did you catch that goofy woman, though, who dumped all the money into the stock and didn't even know the name of it?

Yeah, that Frontline show looked like it was about a year old--IOM was still IOMG. Typical media attitude toward Iomega at the time, calling it a three product company with hardly any earnings. They fail to see the big picture for Iomega.

I still think that that high in 1996 was not particularly unreasonable given the enormous potential.

TMF, >>I'm watching PBS and lo and behold they are using Iomega as the Poster Child for stock market excess and speculation. The Motley Fool is blamed.<<<<

That just about confirms my opinion of PBS. <g>
