What's wrong with a standard? The 3.5" floppy is currently a pathetic 
standard, I'd like to see a better one. Competition for one is good, but 
if something isn't adopted, it will be useless.

What if your electrical outlet differed from that of your neighbor? And 
his neighbor? and her neighbor?

If you want an EZ fine, but I'm interested in a standard replacement for 
the floppy. EZ media is too expensive to replace many of the things we 
already use floppies for. The 25MB Zip disk will certainly beat any EZ 
cart for 'disposability'
