"I don't bad mouth ..." ??? Your whole preceding paragraph was
nothing but mudslinging !
By the way, I've just looked {again} at Syquest's 95Q4 report, and
I see none of the imaginary "statements" you cite so often. For those
interested, see http://www.syquest.com/syquest/p951027.htm.
Why do you insist on spreading this misinformation ? Has Dad been
making out on Iomega stock and you want to help keep that old gravy
train rolling ? Or do you belong to the "one market, one product"
school of thought ? C'mon, we all really wanna know ...
cheers
