Mel, thanks for your posts, and hello again to all the SI folk...I find this board a pleasure, despite Rocky's best efforts. I can't escape the conclusion that he's paid to be here, as is LeLunch over on the Fool board.

I thought the report was basically positive, and will stay long as well, since Iomega appears on the track to becoming profitable. I also liked the sound of the new marketing campaign. I guess my continuing bet hinges on the fact that removable storage will become increasingly important over the next few years, and Io has few (read, no) significant competitors in this arena so far; I was very glad to hear that Iomega is ready for HiFD, if need be, with a higher capacity unit. I don't worry about LeRock, he will be gone as soon as the stock is better respected by the street, IMO.
Bob

Update: Nice ads in wsj,nyt...keep in mind with the 4th qt being our biggest, and zip disk and drives as well as jaz up, even if this stayed the same from 3rd. qt which it will not, and given the statemnet that "the orders we have got for the 4th qt. from our customers are real good". then usb and clik and "high margin" jaz are pure gravy for this qt.
