Ken, Looks like you also have a love/hate relationship with IOM, (you can't live with it and you can't live without it.) Sort of like being married, you love some of your mates qualities and put up with the ones you don't like. It will be nice to see you on our side again when you decide to come back. I hope that it bottoms @ 9 and not 8. If there are any attorneys on the thread could you give us an opinion on the patent litigation problems with the discs.. and the chance of winning that battle. SR

About Yahoo vs. SI: >>Yes, I agree. The people who post at Yahoo are way, way out there.I swear to God, they should require everyone who is going to tradestocks take a class and pass a test, or at least take an IQ test..<< I happen to disagree. The Iomaniacs here at SI tend to view Iomega as "it should be." An aggressively growing, dynamic company with a flashy CEO who wows the Street with Q after Q of stellar earnings amassed by selling leading edge technology at competitive prices. At Yahoo, they know that in real life, Iomega sells clinically proven defective devices that utilize ancient technology and sell them at exorbitant prices. They also realize the very grave situation that Iomega finds itself in in its relationship with The Street, and how the CEO is viewed by the big boys with wads of cash. They know what IOM really is. Dogmeat.
