Pros: speedy, purple
Cons: crashes computers; locks up computers; makes silver frisbees
The Bottom Line: All in all, it was an interesting study in demonic possession of computer equipment.
When it worked, I was satisfied. When it messed up, it messed up horribly.

| valour's Full Review: Iomega ZipCD CD-RW Burner |
It all began with strange clicking noises.
The software was annoying enough to acquire...but finally, we began copying demos of our product...
until....the Iomega ZIPCD decided it liked to lock up my computer. Like a sort of short, squat, purple HAL, it would seize up all processes...I learned to close everything else before even thinking about firing up the ZIPCD. It even prevented warm restarts...sometimes, I'd have to unplug the CPU itself to restart the computer.
And heaven help you if you tried to remove the USB connection....it'd turn your computer off for you.
All in all, it was an interesting study in demonic possession of computer equipment.
When it worked, I was satisfied. When it messed up, it messed up horribly.
