    Yeah but wouldn`t a big hard drive be cheaper, and i can`t imagine that many people will have one so you might not get much use with it.

    But definetly pretty cool

    Question about zip drives :
    the zip drives in college are 100mb, do i have to buy a 100mb zip drive for my computer for it to be compatable, or can i get the 250mb drive, and get 100mb disks for college, i mean are 100mb disk compatable with 250 drives?

    Yes of course :)
    The same way CDs are readable by a DVD drive.
    250meg disks can't be read by 100Mb drives.
