Sheesh. While all of you lament the IOM story. RMBS is up over $18 in two days.

ROCKY WINS.....13 of last 16 posts are about Rocky and/or his investments. IOM may or may not be on its last legs.....this thread is definitely dead! Rocky is actually the only poster writing about IOM. How strange.

Hey Rocky, If you want to make 1/2 your money back on QGLY, sell what you got and then short it. As for IOM, we shall see. Next year, there will be 100 million PC's sold world wide. What percentage do you care to guess will come with Zip drives built in? I'll bet 50% of them...and 80% in the year 2000. IOM is going to make some serious money. Ride the boom now, Rocko, or forever hold yer posts... -John

Rocky are you going to talk about quigley or are you going to ignore the fact that it looks like it is going down, down, gone!. Are you planning to ride it all the way down zero?

But CD burners are unreliable, and the cd's you burn them on are too fragile, constantly getting scratched and ruined. I find the IOMEGA zip 100 plus more reliable even thought he disks are more expensive. Someone recently mentioned to me that Colorado Backup has a new "backup" tape method that is inexpensive and foolproof. Any thoughts on that? And if Iomega can no longer compete with the cd-r market, how their stock is still so cult-ish? I don't own Iomega, but several threads on fool and stockholder indicate there's a rather large following. cahscat
