>>forgot about a little thing called a Flop! drive<<

I had a feeling that you would jump on that ;-)
No, I didn't forget about the drive. I was comparing apples to apples.

The comparison had to do with media cost (Flash vs. Clik!) not the mechanism that reads the media.

You will notice that I didn't factor in the price of the Flash card reader either. (a cost that you seem to forget about)

It's laughable that Iomaniacs try and pass off Flop! as an inexpensive solution, and almost always forget to include the price of the drive when figuring costs associated with Flop!

It's even more laughable that you exist.
