I debated which system to use, and decided on the ZIP drive. Each disk
holds 100 Mb, and the drives themselves are inexpensive enough to be
an attractive addition to any computer. Jazz drives would also be good,
but the larger size is worrysome, as is the size of the CD-R method. We
used to use a Worm optical (600 Mb per side) . . . imagine losing that
much data on a corrupted disk -- it happens. 100 meg at a time seems
more managable.
