	I haven't had a problem with Zoom yet.  I've decrunched many files
(haven't had a need to crunch, so I cant' speak on that yet) and have had no
problem whatsoever.  I liked it because it was not only faster, but I didn't
need to wipe the disk it was decrunching to.  It wiped it for me.  I'll give it
a shot crunching some disks and see if that GURU's it or not.
