If I remember correctly, the 20 million drive announcement was all drives shipped, Zip, Jaz and Ditto. Any guesses as to when the 20 millionth Zip drive announcement will show up?

Someone would have approximated 19M -> 20M.
Look at the company release today. It says over 19 Mil only and not 20Mil. I am sure IOM will let the whole world know when it hits 20M since it is a major mile stone (just like 10 M last Nov). If we get this news anytime after Dec 15, then it says clearly that the run rate is still only 1M/month. But an announcement before that would indicate some acceleration. I think still things are going in IOM's favor but i am still waiting for that knock-out punch. I think WallSt will feel better and better about IOM's future if the zip attach rate in PCs goes more and more. I think IOM would have sealed the game when ZipBuitIn PCs are 50% of total PCs.

But I hope Jaz sales give a sweet surprise to us.
