Rock, I think I recall a post from Comdex about the external drive fitting into a stand that was connected to the pc. I don't recall if I read it in the Rainbow Room review or if it was in that wacky Comdex report those 2 guys wrote. Anyone else know? -Spank

RE: Vapor! will cannibalize Zip (according to Rocky). Rocky, >> Nowhere could I find out how Vapor! is supposed to interface with a computer. The text states merely: The clik! drive has an IDE/ATAPI interface and will offer a number of connectors, including serial and IrDA connections. << Gee, that sounds like interfaces to me. >> Is Iomega concerned that Vapor! will cannibalize Zip sales? << Oh my! Now we're in trouble. Yet another Zip-killer, and this one is from Iomega!!! I should sell my IOM and buy IOM. Surely, they'll be the next IOM! They're different markets. There will be little or no cannibalization. You're thinking of SyQuest's products. - Michael Coley - wwol.com
