I agree, Dale.  Another thing to consider is... What the heck is everyone
else buying?  If you want to have portability among several computers that
you own or use at work that's one thing... but if you wanna awap data with
others, the Zip drive is VERY popular so the chances of someone having a
Zip drive is higher than them having the Syquest.  Even if the Syquest comes
on strong, Zip has the jump on them with lots of units sold already.
