  I saw a SyQuest EZ drive today at Computer City.  They¹re $250, and the
disks cost $19.95 if you buy in bulk (according to Mac Warehouse).  If
you¹re buying 10 disks and the drive, that¹s over $100 more than a Zip
drive, at $189, and $14.95 per disk for 10.  Granted, you also get 350
more megabytes, and a faster drive, but I just got my Zip drive today,
and it seems to do just fine.  It depends on whether you need the speed
and if you can afford the extra money.  Just my 2 pennies.
