I agree that Iomega Zip & Jazz drives are old technology now in the days of CD-R / CD-RW drives. The CD-R blank discs are under $1.00 a piece (which cannot be said for Zip floppys). There is even a drive by HP (Hewlett Packard) that is a CD-R - CD-RW & DVD-ROM all in one and receives a very high rating from all the compouter magazines.

I also would not get a computer with, nor install another Iomega product (Zip or Jazz). I would go with the "CD" technology.

Ah, but what do the Interositer magazines say about it?

I know this is off topic, but I remember reading in New Scientist a couple of years back that new floppies had been invented which could hold at least 1 hundred megabytes and still read normal floppies. Does anyone know what happened to that idea?
