Default The new Iomega drive

Who really wants the new 750mb Zip drive/disks? They cost more than a Cd-rw drive and more than 2 cds. My cdrw is faster than the zip and the media costs less than the zip media.

Well, the thing with Zip is that you can erase a single file at a time if you want, something you can't even do with CD-RW's. Plus CD-RW's only last around ten times. The chemicals loose their purity. The magnetic tape though, has been perfected, and so you have that part of re-usability that optical doesn't yet have.
