>>I was in my local Circuit City and looking at some computers. << Did you see ANY computers with a built in Zip? If so, which one? Just the Apples? That's the story I've been seeing wherever I go nowadays. NO BUILT IN ZIPS IN ANY WINTEL COMPUTERS. Just Apple.

Mr. Sockbulll <The salesman at circut city was very knowledgeable about the technology and thought SyQuest had better performance than the zip> <In CompUSA the salesman also recommended the SyQuest over the zip..> Just to fill you guys in........Salesman can tell you whatever crap they want.....They work on commission..... I know because I USED TO WORK AT CIRCUT CITY...... A salesman will get $5 in commision for selling you a zip drive ($199) and will get ($12) is he sells you the SyQuest drive ($149) He looks like a hero right??? All honest and telling you to get the cheaper one......What a great guy he is.......Bulll.......Hes watchin out for himself pal......I used to tell people the same crap when I worked there and the people got real pissed at me when they brought the crappy SYQuest drive back and exchanged it for a zip.....I thought you told me it was better??? Yeah lady...It is better.....for my wallet...... Bottom line..........
