- If you want my advice, consider Central Point Backup. I use

- it works just great. I had some problems with the various
- versions of the TAPE program provided with my drive. I now have
- the version 2.54 as you and didn't find too many improvements
- since the first version I had. I will use the Jumbo software only
- for unatended tape access form my BBS door I'm creating now.
