- Hi Allan
-
- Have you thought about using the VBS program. The Video Backup
- System, is put out by Lyppens Software, in New York, New York,USA.
- The owner, Hugo Lyppens, was previously from The Netherlands.
-
- I read a message the other day, that he has a special price, right
- now, for I believe US $65.00, or something like that.
-
- It is a software/hardware program, that backs up, whatever you
- want, to your VCR. You can pick and choose, just like in AmiBack,
- for what you want to back up.
-
- Check out more info from Mr Lyppens www page at:

-
- I still use AmiBack, along with the VBS tape backups. The serial
- port is used for the hardware connection, so I have a switch
- box, as I have other serial stuff, hooked up.
