Yea I've noticed it too. Brought it up to the threads attention and was told it's still there, however, it's not. There were two press releases in particular dealing with Buz and Jaz2 shipping in Feb., that I can't seem to find. However, doubt it's the conspiracy thingie. Maybe we can get Oliver Stone to make a movie about it (can't stand that left over hippie.) Zead

IOM management: You just need to do two things to make IOM succeed 1) Make portable drive as a standard part of PC (do NOT make people think it is an upgrade). Just like CD-ROM drive, every PC has one. How? 1) build up relation with OEMs. 2) Encourage software vendor to use Zip to distribute software. Give them for free or at the cost. 2) Make partable drive as a stardard storage for other computing devices, digital camera, webTV, ... That is all. Do not run Ads to sell your products as an upgrades. It is a part of the standard. --Sam
