- Huh? I was receommending that the original poster NOT use DC600's or
- DC600A's in his Archive Viper 2150S because that was 3M's word on it.
- Selling those tapes to someone who has a QIC-120 (or a 60MB unit)
- where the tapes were _designed_ to be used would not be a problem for
- anyone, including third world countries.
-
- BTW, I always give full facts when I sell an item as used. When I
- sold my last car I had a list of half a dozen things that needed
- repair/work to put the vehicle in tip-top shape, and it was given to
- the new owner -- before he made the purchase.
