RE: The Rocky Horror Zip Story.

Rocky,

>> When we needed it most, the Zip drive I depended on let me down. My first real use of a Zip drive, and in the middle of loading samples all I hear is CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK. <<

How many times do we have to tell you... You can't use SyQuest disks in Zip drives? They're not compatible with the standard!

P.S. I won't even discuss your grammar. I'll leave that to more capable people, like your new buddy Rod.
