To all that are long IOM. This thing about reliability comes every time IOM goes down. I've been in this stock for some time, and every time IOM goes down people start posting how bad the product is. If it reaches an all time high everyone says how great the product is. I would just warn people who are long to be careful not not get too tied up in comments when the stock is down. IOM seems to trade in extreme optimism and pessimism, and you need to realize that this is the same ol, same ol stuff I've seen since watching.

SS >>chat live about your click death<<? My first impression of the click death web site was that it is a hired gun. I wonder who pays this guy to maintain the site? Or is he hoping to be paid to go away. I have had hard, floppy, and tape drive failures and my first reaction is to curse then replace the drive, not to create a web site about it. The live chat link really did it for me. I can think of a lot more entertaining sites to chat live on than this one. You've got to have a serious fetish to get excited about live click death chat. I don't mean to suggest that zip drives have a zero failure rate but I suspect that the click death site is really dedicated to negative IOM PR. It seems to have had some success in serving that purpose. Les
