To all, I was in Office Depot and pleased to see the number of computers with built-in Zips, but a salesman commented that LS120 sales are growing..I don't know much about the LS120, other than what I was told today - that it reads conventional floppies as well as the 120 MB disks that are the same size. The salesman's opinion was that the LS120 will become increasingly more popular as a built-in accessory. I realize this is one person's opinion, and I am sure this issue has been debated here. So can someone summarize the essential differences between the Zip and L2120 technologies, and why isn't the LS120 a better alternative than a Zip due to its apparently greater versatility? Thanks.
