Yep, we were all wrong. I was so wrong it hurts. Given the data on Zip sales from Iomega, analysts estimates, and reports and news of sales here and elsewhere though, I don't think an estimate of .16-.17 was unreasonable.

I believe the deviation from my personal guess of .17 to be due mainly to decreased tie ratios. I hadn't expected OEM Zips to have as low tie ratios as they have, and I had certainly not expected tie ratios to go down after being flat or up for so long.
