Ravel,

Not all the news is good...read this:

>>(Zip drives, however, are the closest thing to a removable-storage standard. If you rarely move files larger than 100 megs and need guaranteed compatibility with other users, a Zip is probably the way to go.)<<

and this:

>>My tester has one minor complaint. When he unpacked the SparQ, he found that the disk-slot lid was sealed with a sticker that left a gummy residue. Because the sticky stuff has proven difficult to remove, he is concerned that accumulated dust and dirt could ultimately damage the drive or a cartridge.<<

Could you please post the link to his article?

Thanks.

Philip
