Hi Truff.. Don't want to get into the blow by blows of Herb but to identify one of his main issues of contention, being the failure of the Jaz drive. Time and time again ( probably 82 of the 83 times he wrote about IOM ) he had written about the unreliability of the Jaz only to be ultimately proved wrong. His information IMO was jaded with a pompous requirement that IOM be accountable to him, heck I wouldn't call the guy back either. The Jaz product line has been an outstandingly reliable product. He was as much hyping the downside of IOM as much as many were hyping the up side. It could be said that he was as wrong 4 months ago just as much as he is right today. As far as IOM is concerned I'm not writing them off just yet. Their situation is similar to a sports team that just suffered a stunning loss that will result in a review of the game plan with greater resolve and determination. I'll be following the next conference call very closely. Good luck to you Regards Reseller

Trufflette; Regarding Greenberg, like all pundits and prognosticators they are good at letting us know when the are "right" even if it is for all of the wrong reasons. Greenberg is one of those. Even gossip columnists and checkout counter "rags" get it right once in awhile. archcc
