About the only use an old Zip drive would have is backup/restore on
computers with broken or no USB ports.
Using a Knoppix CD and a Zip drive works wonders in this area. That is
if an external USB cd burner can't be used.
You find a lot simpler set of instructions at:

Works like a charm, every time.
