OROM impact on hdd >>less than Zip<<. LOL Tech sector is full of vaporware breakthroughs. Even real leaps such as HDTV, minidisc, DVD and JAVA seem to bring out the worst in companies and groups whose cooperative spirit is needed for successful implementation. The biggest threat to any major technological leap is in the politics of acceptance.
