Lurking, lurking, lurking Frank.... stopped by yesterday to check the thread and thought I had fallen into the mother of all time warps....Lumpy's old deritus reheated and served as today's hash. I was expecting to see some reconstituted arguments making the case for CD-rw as the next Zip killer. Wonder what ever happened to that line of reasoning? Snow is respectable but not great. Been so busy dealing dirt I have trouble sneaking off in the afternoon for a few runs. Folks from London yesterday, calls from retired GM exec's today... all looking for that elusive, authentic rural, rustic experience without all the glitz and glam of the ass pen area. Best wishes to all the hard working longs here! Jak!

re: Where will Iomega get its growth? Zip, Zip 250, USB Zip, surely a USB Zip 250 soon, Jaz, Jaz2, Clik! in a variety of applications AND new products not yet announced.< Just spent the day with some of my old music friends, using mp3 files ( had to see what it was all about). This stuff is great, I can see why the music industry is so concerned. Noticed that Sony has committed to downloading music on the net, they had better start putting Zip drives back in their systems. For those interested check the sights below, this is where IMO the industry is being forced to go. The genie is out of the bag and they can't put it back. We have a couple of generations of computer literate people downloading this stuff all over the net. Storage companies are uniquely positioned to support the onslaught of information that is flowing thru the Internet. mp3.com mp3-2000.com My Clik! Drive facilitated the transfer of some non photographic files today heck it was hooked up so why not. This was one of the reasons why I opted for the external drive instead of waiting for a camera with one built in. A decent place for information on the AFGA camera as well as others. imaging-resource.com Looking for some more old friends, perhaps someone could e-mail a site that has late 60's early 70's stuff.
