RE: Changing Trends.

I read an interesting article today:

Now that sub-$1000 PCs are as common as Starbucks cafes, manufacturers are starting to offer additional goodies to entice buyers. We looked at Sys Technology's new $899 Celeron-333-based Sys TaskMaster 333C, and found that, overall, it's a tasty little deal. Nice warranty too. See for yourself in this online exclusive First Look.

Although it doesn't directly mention Iomega, it mentions a trend that I think will start to work in Iomega's favor. It seems as if Zip could easily become one of those "additional goodies" that manufacturers add to sub-$1000 machines to entice buyers.

SUSAN!!!...If you can't figure it out, you're even less educated than all of us believe.

There is ample incentive on the part of some to keep iom at or below 7 until Feb option expiration.
