I concur with the "sennheiser is beefier" assessment.
PSC makes a "universal shockmount" retrofit that I prefer to the
original rycote mount (I haven't used the "new, improved" rycote
mount). It may be worth taking a look at.

if you get the zeppelin with the "boom adaptor" instead of the grip
handle, and
if you get a 1/4" to 3/8" threaded adaptor, you could use a camera
tripod to mount the whole thing vertically.
actually, you may be able to do this with the grip handle, since it has
a threaded hole on the bottom.
hope that helps,
Mark
