Interesting, But he mentioned High 8, that is not a digital camera. I own a Sony High8. High 8 is the top of the line in the 8mm series. Then you have digital, which is better. How much recording time could they put on a ZIP? If they are not using digital recording, can they compress the data? Why would Sony use a ZIP when they have their own MINI DISK?

Re: Dr Iomega last post on M/F Must read!!!! What a creep this person was. ************************************** Subject: The real fools Date: Sun, Feb 1, 1998 17:16 EST From: DrIomega Message-id: <19980201221600.RAA13909@ladder03.news.aol.com> As if I really care if I have been banned from the Silicon Investor. It's time to grow up kids. What sort of low grade morons would take the word of any sort of pseudonym who claimed to have insider information on IOM? All those people who dissed on me are the real fools--and clearly not investors. Take a hard look at yourselves. This company is spending 100 million dollars to get rid of an inventory problem for an old (not new) product that is becoming a lagging competitor in a commodity field. The days of ye;;pw journalism are upon us once again, and this board reflects the absurdity that was so prevelant 100 years ago with the advent of multiple newspapers. My biggest thrill is the guy who invested on my advice in a margain accout. Get a brain check pal. This is the problem with anonymity of these boards. So long suckers **************************
