Subject:Re: Are Zip drives obsolete? From:Michele Davis <michele -at- krautgrrl -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 13 Nov 2000 11:13:16 -0600
Everyone is forgetting to mention that Zip drives are renowned to have a
problem. They eat disks. We just purchased a CD writer to save all my old
projects on, I trust a CD more then a Zip drive. Especially when my Zip drive
ate my disk and I lost an entire project. There is a fix on the internet, but
sometimes it's just too late to fix the disk and the information is gone.
> Our Zips are used cross-platform effortlessly. We buy the Windows version and can use them on our Macs and PCs without any conversion utilities. Don't the last 3 or 4 Mac OS versions read Windows media?
