First Published December 20, 1998 Bay Area Edition Disk Space: The Fickle Frontier You want to upgrade your notebook's hard drive. But how? currents.net <If you're allergic to screwdrivers> not me. <A final alternative is an external drive with removable storage, such as an Iomega Zip or Jaz drive (Zip, $119.95; Jaz, $399.95; 801/778-1000), one of the new breed of "super-floppies" by Imation or Sony, or perhaps upgrading the CD-ROM to a CD-RW or a DVD-RAM drive. You'll have to carry additional media, but you get the versatility of removable storage.> This may have been posted ..but, I'll include it here anyway. It's free to do so. Monday, December 21, 1998 Top 10 of 1998 macweek.zdnet.com <9: VST/Iomega PowerBook Zip Drive. The VST people have always known more about the peripheral doodads that we want for our PowerBooks than does Apple. Their PowerBook Zip Drive, which can be purchased to fit virtually any PowerBook with an expansion bay (going back to those lame PowerBook 5300s, for example), is an essential tool for the road warrior. If you own a new PowerBook G3 and don't own one of these drives, buy it now. You'll need it.> Linda
