Zip will not likely replace the floppy.

Yeah, sure Tom. *LOL*

I guess it will be the LS-120 with their "gigantic" sales numbers to date.

No? Maybe it will be the Syquest SparQ coming from a company that is trying to do a 5 or 10 for 1 reverse stock split to stay listed, is NOW trading for $0.25 per share and lost nearly as much as their gross revenues last quarter. Oh, I forgot....Iomega also has an injunction against them in France for patent infringement, preventing them from selling SparQ disks without paying Iomega a $16 per disk penalty.

Better yet, how about the Sony HiFUD that you can't even get ahold of anywhere while it looks like zip drives may now be selling at a million per month clip based on the timing of the 16 million and 17 million sold announcements.
