I am strongly considering using a Zip 100 drive with the palmzip driver for "mass" storage on my (whenever-it-gets-here) IBM PC 5150. The parallel port will be a unidirectional one. What kind of performance can I expect from such a setup? Would it be faster than a 360K floppy drive? Would modifying the parallel card to be bidirectional be worth it? Would it be feasible to run smaller games from the disk?
