Spank, Tsk! Now let's not get dirty. I don't know if he had a Jaz on his leg on the side I couldn't see. He may have had a bunch of Zip disks up his arse for all I know, but I didn't see them. But what a character. Chernoff apparently has a harelip, but at least he was well dressed. And by the way it was only about 40 degrees and being on the tip of Manhatten there was quite a frosty breeze from the ocean. Mighty bold of Rockhead to be sitting there on that damp cold bronze. What he needs is a little portable box so he could sell some refurbished/broken Jaz drives. They are very popular down there and everyone is too busy to get a decent lunch (they mostly eat hot dogs from little stands) and has no time for going to a computer store. Rocky, seriously, why don't you talk to Reseller and see if he can't supply you some product. We know you need work. This is perfect for you, being an expert on removeable drives. Regards, David S. Long on Intel and Iomega

From the IBM mini-drive article: "Current plans call for the drive to use giant magneto-resistive heads, combined with standard rotating media with the aim of ultimately offering drives that scale up to a Gbyte in capacity and down to $99 in price. " $99 for a Gig? In the size of a PC Card? To any that think a 40MB Vapor! is a great leap forward, will be a best-seller, and will bump up IOM stock price a great deal, I have one thing to say: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!
