Blazing ORB!

Call the Cops cause this could be an All-Nighter! Usenet is virtually EXPLODING with ORB fans singing the praises of this wonderful new product!

If I were going to buy that sort of drive, I would take the orb over the jaz. Of course it is too soon to know about reliability for the orb, but lots of people in various ngs have complained about the jaz, especially the media. It appears that the disks get corrupted rather easily.

It seems like Iomega and Jaz are well-respected by users....AND DONKEYS FLY!
