Sheila -

You know what's really funny? Nomai has said that they are going to develop a Zip disk that will work in the notebook Zip drives. That particular version won't work in the non-notebook Zip drives, though, since it will have to have a differently-shaped parabolic mirror.

Two different kinds of XHD disks, one for your notebook and one for your desktop. Sort of defeats the purpose, eh?

BTW, I sent you a private message here on SI. Don't know if you saw it. Would have e-mailed but the message got bounced.
