>> If your Windows 95-based system has an Iomega Zip drive, Norton Zip Rescue offers you a quick and easy non-DOS disaster recovery alternative. This addition to the Rescue Disk utility within Symantec's Norton Utilities 3.0 lets you create a personalized rescue Zip disk of your hard drive, including files and system settings. I'll say from experience, that is one hell of a cool utility! If more people knew about it, I'd bet they'd sell even more zip and Jaz drives. ATAPI uses the same interface as IDE, but is designed for non-fixed disks (most notably CD-ROMs). The older IDE drives had problems, because people would set them up on their computers with the BIOS thinking it was a fixed disk (int13 support), and cause all kinds of problems. The ATAPI drives are easier to set up and have lower support costs.
