I'm curious about the Zip drive. I have a Performa 575. Micro Center was having a clearance sale. One of the items was a SCSI Zip 250. I was interested until I read on the box it was for OS 8.6. I was pretty sure that the could work, but that requirement scared me off. There was nothing on Iomega's web site that would tell me either way. But I did download the Zip drivers from Iomega and found that most of the software was for PPC. (Since I didn't have a Zip drive, I didn't expect to do anything with the software, I just wanted to see if it would start.) Then I downloaded an older set from elsewhere. That loaded ok, but it was explicitly for Zip 100. Meanwhile, Micro Center sold the 250 and I ended up buying a Zip 100. It works great. It came with it's own driver and software (even older than what I downloaded), So at this point I seem to be using the driver I got from Iomega, and a mix of the software that came with the drive and what I downloaded. I haven't had any problems, but what I would really like to know is could I have used the Zip 250? jim -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
