June 98 Computer Shopper cover story p. 150 on 400 MHz "Power Towers": 2 of 5 have Zips builtin - Gateway and Micron. Disappointed that Dell didn't, I wondered if things changed since the article was written (they usually have a greater lead time than the ads.) So I looked at the Dell ad on pp.162-3 (in the middle of the P-400 article), and noticed that of the 8 Dell desktop models, 5 had Zip builtin standard. Oddly, only 2 of 8 did on the inside cover ad - probably had to be sent in earlier than the pp. 162-3 ad. Things are progressing well when Dell has that many models with builtin Zip. Dell is the standard, as we all know. Dell is worth all the other PC makers combined. I am going to get back into IOM this week. BTW, IOM had a splashy 2 page ad in the middle of the article, on pp. 156-7. P.S. Keep up the good work RH. Your research is appreciated. And anyone who can get under RR's skin and at the same time make Jock itch to complain, is tops in my book.
