At my local Office Depot and Best Buy are dominated by IOM component products, the three stores that I went into had 90% of the shelf space devoted to Zip, Jazz and some Ditto.

Did not check what they had 'built-in", as I am of the opinion that most that buy PCs from this type of outlet don't give a hoot if the extra back-up is from IOM, IMN or others...these are "ready to wear" computer buyers.

Costco just opened here...IOM only, the only Imation products were 1.44 floppies. Also Costco and WalMart online stores only were offering IOM products in the tape or "drive" area.

FWIW

We have a Staples here as well, and my experience agrees with Darrels....Two Zipped Compaqs, one Zipped HP, no superdisk that I saw. Oh, and there was a glassed in counter with Iomega products only, no LS120s to be seen.
