BBG, You made a mistake. Dr. Bubblehead upped Rockieturds dosage already. That's why he is here blubbering and dribbling all day about IOM, he can't hold down a job while he is on his meds. Thanks, Darrell for your cogent targeting of the failure of Syquest based on the wrong product for the wrong market. Orb is spinning is the same mucky pond. Quicksand will take it down. The trick is in the Clik - the upcoming Zip killer (only in terms of cannibalizing future sales, not in maintaining high margin Zip disk sales to 22 million installed drives). See my post BELOW from early this AM when I got out of SI Internet Jail. PS: ANYONE FOLLOW PGTV? VOLUME JUMPED TO OVER 3 M TODAY VS. 30 K TYPICALLY. Regards, David S.

Tuesday, Mar 16 1999 12:44AM ET Reply # of 8346 Hey Guys and Gals, I am back from SI Internet Jail, (thanks to Rocky-turds-a-plenty), and am raring to jump on any knarly clawed bears tromping all over this thread. What is the matter with these guys, don't they have a life? It is incredible how Pigboy romps all over the place, wherever a stock takes a tumble, and tries to pour salt on the wounded with stupid bear blues which consist of nothing more than brain smoke wafting from his toasted head. Over at the Dell thread they just laugh at him. You guys are now taking Rocks-in-the-butt and Bubble-nut-head much too seriously. They have no legitimate, honest agenda. They are just trying to blow hot smoke up your ass so you do something stupid to their advantage. Fi Fy, go away you silly scum. By the way, no one sent me a cake while I was in internet jail. What are friends for? I think I may have to bake my own cake with Iomega icing. My take on the latest, Clik will be the Zip killer, not Orb. In other words, Clik will become the cross platform media for the likes of computers, PDAs, digital cameras, slide makers, telephones, refrigerators, security systems, car maps, calculators, clothes washers - a ubiquitous, cheap throw-around memory device that will interchange with all of the above and more. IOM just has to get the drive price below $50 and the disks below $3. Then they will replace 1.4 floppys as the cross talk standard. Zip almost does it, but its a bit too big and expensive. Clik has that potential. You can put a half dozen in your shirt pocket, store a tray of them with your family photos, travel history, etc. Flip them at your friends like a frisbee. That's my prediction.
