Because that Zip Drive is not the Zip Drive that most of us know
today. This one is an internal hard drive made by Zip Technologies,
the maker of the Zip Chip, as it plainly shows on the bottom of the
board in the picture:

the normal Zip Drive we are all familiar with is made by Iomega and
uses disks that hold anywhere from 100MB to 750MB. Depending on when
this ad cam out I wouldn't be surprised if Iomega had sued Zip
Technologies over use of the name.
