Brent: I sent you an email about AOL. Email me back and tell me what position you have on it. I have a good chart read for you. We may be going on that South Pacific vacation soon!

Brent, What you discribed in your post re: Zip inclusions aplenty among late-comer computer users, is not too dissimilar to what I noticed last year that prompted me to buy IOM for the first time. At a higher-powered university like Emory, Zips were being included in almost all new purchases and being added to older machines particularly among the Mac crowd. These of course were all external zips then, but they were popping up everywhere. When a whole new department was built in a research building they added Zip drives (also external) to everyone's machine. The idea was this would be the standard for sharing large files and programs and so it was provided to all staff's machines. I figured this trend would be followed by the public, and looking a year later, it is obvious that it has. Regards, David S. Long on Intel and Iomega
