That is good to see that in the PC press these days, but do you think this will translate eventually into higher OEM inclusion? It seems that what they are saying has been true for some time, yet OEM inclusion is decreasing. Are the bears right that the Zip has peaked and will now slowly fall in sales? Maybe only a small percent of computer users need any more removable storage than the 1.44 MB floppy. That appears to be what the box makers are telling us with their recent moves of Zip from standard to optional. Or maybe the slowdown is temporary, and once the box makers start doing better they can start adding more parts, especially Zips, to their computers again. Brendan
