- How about this: anybody know of any Windows-based backup programs which
- support quarter-inch cartridges, using either a SCSI or a dedicated QIC-02
- controller? Or a DOS device driver which would make such a drive work with
- the mainstream backup programs?

- It appears that CP's and Norton's tape support is limited to these little
- mini-cartridges, which I personally can't stand. :)
