>Maybe Genentech, or Iomega, or... I remember the IOMEGA argument was that the disks were going to be like 'razor blades', that once an Iomega drive was in the oem's that nothing would stop iomega. Well, no one wanted to hear that with cheaper hard drives, and with the LS drive that no one really needed more disks. IOM turned out to be just a fad. Back to Amazon: I'm still in awe that so many people in the US reads books! I thought that the internet was gonna do away with paper ;-)
