"I have said all along that Zip's lack of floppy compatibility will be its undoing. And it turns out that is rapidly becoming the case." Let me see. Over 60% of the zips sold (approximately 8 million) have been sold in the last 9 months. Yep, zip is going down to this vapor product "Sony has stated that a 200MB HiFi disc will sell for $10. This competes with a 100MB Zip disc that presently sells for $19.95." Well at least you're not even close. "Sony has stated.." Wow that's powerful, that must mean its true. Just for the record - Zip disks presntly sell for less than $10 not $19.95 - you must have them confused with LS-120 disks. But at least you are consistent.
