It was about selling more disks!........that what i got from it....btw...we are more than the average comsumer we own the stock, i asked 12 people at work today, who are not heavy computer types about the add, 8 of 12 said that after the ad there kids (teens) told them that "the is the zip we want or Mom(Dad) I need more disks"....I think it served the purpose of exposure.....there are a lot of people(not on this thread) who have maybe heard of the zip drive, maybe seen it in stores..etc....and this ad, if all it does puts iom with the big boys advertising during the superbowl......there are alot of things i hear about in this industry but when i see an ad on tv it tends to solidify the product in my mind....who knows.......
