>I learned a significant fact concerning Imation's new USB SuperDisk drive for the PC platform: Imation has separate USB drives for Mac and PC!!!! USB SuperDisk is not cross-platform!!!< In all fairness to Imation, I think that the only difference in these drives is the color scheme and packaging. I have an "Imac" USB drive and I also have the Windows drivers. Works just fine on my PC, but the Imac LS120 is distinctive in its Imac like appearance. Just good marketing to the Imac market. I do like USB much more than than parallel port. The Iomega booth was hot and had lots of traffic. Clik! looked more real than Croks! ramblings. USB Zip looked great too. Haven't made it to the Imation booth as I was working my own booth all day :-)

Philip - Thanks for the report from Comdex. Very interesting. A Clik! MP3 player, eh? Who would have thought? Sounds like a good idea to me. - Allen

Hi Lipo, Sitting here in IOM's comdex sight looking for ya. Have to make this short as I'm using a borrowed system. The booth is jumping, lots of action, products look great. IMN shouldn't have shown up very little going on. Sony's HIFD drive can't format a 1.44 floppy, great downward compatibility, internal doesn't ship until Feb March next year. USB Zip has shipped. Clik is impressive, will post more about it later. Was told that Zip 250 will ship in December. s.batch ingram should be showing sku#'s Regards Reseller
