ALLEN...

I feel the same way... I love IOMEGA's products and will be buying one of those new DELL INSPIRON laptop ZIP's while I'm in the States next week... I want to see them turn it around too and guess that is why I continue to follow this thread but I think it's going to take a while... In depends on continued cost cutting, CLIK!, and how well IOMEGA holds up in the face of the coming competition from Sony's HifD drive and IBM's mini drive... The biggest thing I think IOMEGA has going for it right now is the 17 million + ZIP drives in use out there... IOMEGA has got to keep this number growing and slowly reduce the cost of the drive and disks as their costs go lower and benefits from economies of scale begin to kick in as volumes increase... I give the new management team a c+... they are doing some good things to reduce costs but think they have failed to pick up the PR ball that K.E. dropped and where in the world is the new CEO?

Ciao I'm headed North to Gringolandia....
