You are of course correct in that Nomai produced SyQuest compatible disks for the older drives, (they did not make SyJet or SparQ disks). In fact, Nomai's disk sales had a significant negative impact on SyQuest's earnings and contributed to their demise.

It is interesting to me that Iomega purchased SyQuest's inventory in addition to the intellectual property and fixed assets. I expect that you correct in assuming Iomega/Nomai will now produce disks for all SyQuest drives.

I wonder what Jodie will do with the drive inventory? Does he plan to sell them, auction the whole lot off, or will he simply dump them in the trash? I can't imagine he has any intention of continuing to produce the SyQuest drives.
