>>I don't understand this statement. We've got a SCSI Ext. Zip on a Silicon Graphics box, works just fine. <<

Oh. well. didn't want to deviate to Unix topic but i use a Sun workstation at office and a NCD terminal at home to connect to that. Everything is NFS mounted and i don't use floppies at all. In fact, i don't even have a floppy drive since all back up etc is taken care of by sysadmins.

But i do have a PC for my personal use and i have a Zip drive along with it but i use it may be couple of times a year (so far mainly for Tax filing only ;-). Just these cheap prices of Zip disks attracted me to buy though i don't have immediate need for them. I am also under the impression that most Unix types don't use floppies at all since they live in fully networked environment. As an IOM investor, i hope most people are not like me though ;-)
