You should all be very angry with Bateh, and Bateh should apologize to everyone here. The posts below point to a very troubling pattern of trying to manipulate the price of IOM without regards to the truth. The truth was revealed last week, directly refuting the Bateh Lies and Exaggerations below: Message 8132741 "Update...heavy heavy movement of sweet high margin jaz2 drive" Message 8108535 Message 8068941 "...but selling zip and jaz like hotcakes!!!" Message 8339068 "...another 4800 jaz2 ultra scsi drives ship yesterday....we just keep growing and growing and growing with those sweet high margin drives!!!! " I could go on and on (there are literally hundreds just like them), but why bother? The pattern of manipulation and lies is clear. Jaz2 just reported HEAVY LOSSES. This is real life, not the Fantasy that Bateh loves to report. Evidently, Bateh's reports are not to be trusted for any kind of credible information regarding Iomega's true profitability.
