I have to agree with Daniel.  I realize that this might not be the most 
appropriate newsgroup, but people here still might be able to provide an 
answer that might not be found elsewhere.

Also, the Zip really isn't platform dependent, and that's what we're

Falcons, and Sun SpartStations, in addition to Macs and PCs.
