Yeah, this problem is something to do with the way Netscape handles Dynamic 
HTML. It has the graphic in front on my PC with Netscape 4.7 and my 
brother's Mac with Netscape. It's fine on IE on the Mac though - it's 
supposed to be some comparison thingy for size. Cunning idea but doesn't 
seem to work with Netscape for whatever reason.

I was also impressed with the USB connectivity and 70,000 hour battery 
life. Sadly, the guy who gave me the link suggested it may be an April Fool 
joke before I'd even looked at the page, so that had me thinkin' for a while!!

Chrz,

Wrighty

The word I got is it is a two way USB connection.  Also, it allows high
speed cloning from one MZ-R100 to another with an inexpensive adapter
(around $15 US).  Slightly higher if you want the commercial version
that bypasses SCMS data bits.

Did you notice the part number for the radiation suit? That was a nice

The USB port on this sounds interesting, does anyone know if its only
PC->MD or a two-way transfer?  Would be good for getting some of my

see everybody gets it as a joke
the truly successful april's fool joke is 
the one which is outlandish but still well 
in the realms of the feasable (to make people 
feel like fools for believeing it)

good idea, but too far fetched
there's also a problem with the graphic
I can see the mzr90 in front of another picture??
