- OS/2'ers please note that the 80MB Backpack is _very_ slow under DOS, After about
- 1/2 hour I was 20% finished backing up a FAT drive with about 120 MB on it...
- That translates to 5 hours (!) for a backup, and since the tape is only 80MB,
- someone has to be there to swap tapes.
-
- The Backpack is a good idea that needs serious speedup work done before it is a
- really useful solution.
