-> PS> A 100M ZIP disc even costs more than a 640M MO disc. 

-> I iherited a zip drive in a W2K machine. The machine's OS was
-> unstable and when I looked into the error logs it was the
-> zipdrive software (like hundreds of error messages). I tried
-> removing it entirely and that trashed the OS. Finally just
-> removed all extra zipdrive software and left it in there. I
-> don't like zipdrives - never did even before this one. Just the
-> name IOMEGA sends shivers down my spine. 

 Is it does too those that bought the early drives and fought with the
Click of Death and IOMEGAS reluctance to admit soemthing was wrong. 
But in my case I entered teh ZIP market later and have not has any
problems with either of my Zip 100 SCSI drives nor my Parallel Port Zip
100. Don't use them very much anymore as I now since almost everybody
has a CD Drice I use CD-RW disks for file transfers.
