Depends on how you look at it. I knew a lot of those 25 products, used many of them and while I don't agree with 2 things on that list (yeah, only 2), it was interesting to see why many of them failed.

 :o  I have this and use it for my work. One of the main Courthouses in my area puts all the courts info that I need on Zip Discs, I have no choice but to use it.

15. Iomega Zip Drive (1998)


Thats it for me out of the Top 25

Webtv can bite my big fat stinking......(fill in the blank yourselfs)  I feel the same way about AOL.  I remember Circuit City DiVX DVDs as I worked for Circuit City at the time.  Man, what a waste of time, money and effort.

The Zip Disks & IE6 are the only two I disagreed with. Maybe it's because I never had a problem with them. I still have my Iomega drive sitting in front of me. I haven't used it in 3 (maybe 4) years and it's collecting dust but it has never broken on me!
