Les Computer City has almost a full page ad in the Orlando Sentinel. Out of four peripherals advertised, IOM's Buz @ $199.92, is one. If you read the front page, more than likely you will see the add, because three of the five articles that start there, end next to the ad. Zebedee

Les, I was in Office Depot yesterday and noticed a large display of digital cameras, about 12 manufacturers, most costing a lot of bucks like the Kodak model you mention, and surprisingly one from Hewlett Packard for $179 that has 640 x 480 resolution and contains a reusable 2 MB "photomemory card". On the same display they were selling Sandisk 20 MB flash cards for $199 that were useable in Kodak DC120 and Casio QV700. If I had the HP camera and could add a Clik for $200 and use 40 MB 2"x2" disks for about $10 each to store my images just like film, there is no doubt that I would pass up the Sandisk products. Same arguement as Lumphead's even: cheap, cheap, cheap.... and convenient. Regards, David S. Long on Intel, Iomega and Neomagic
