<< Does this mean that Iomega has officially given up on their quest to make the Zip100 the "floppy replacement?" >> No. But it does mean that sales of 250 MB Zips in the aftermarket will be replaced by sales to OEMs - with a corresponding reduction in profit per drive to Iomega. hrp

re Dell <<RE: Zip250 in Dells Does this mean that Iomega has officially given up on their quest to make the Zip100 the "floppy replacement?" I think it does. It's just that IOM Longs haven't realized it yet. The signs were there for awhile now. And IOM sits at $4 7/8>> As for Dell, the most recent issue of their April mail-out lists Zip drives as the only optional removable drive available. They were listing Super Disky, in Feb. or so, but now only Zip. Must be a demand thing. Guess you can call this your own site now R. When your're finally done reaming on IOM, you'll only have yourself left to ream. This sounds like a good quote for Cameroon.
