Geez, guys. All these bitter words. From my perspective, it's June of '97, again. I wouldn't mortgage the farm, but I think it's time to buy a few shares. And I will. SYQT has been good to this cautious investor twice before. Concerning the suggestion that the internals are delicate...well, after having Data Guard Encryption flog the living daylights out of nearly a Gig of archived tee-shirt graphics, my faithful Jet#1 went into a permanent eject mode. Killed the disc. Killed a second disc, used to test with. All replaced by Syquest 2nd day. My other Jet has no problems with identical treatment. Nor does the EZ135, which is my basic workhorse. Was it bad internals...or karma? It DOES bother me that, if you go to the SyQuest page, this eject problem has a special slot of its own. BUT, just don't get me started on why I replaced my %#**@$! zippers with the SyQuest units! Enough to say that all products have quirks. Professionally speaking, though, I've had far fewer w/SyQuest, and they NEVER intimate that the failure is somehow my fault.
