chaobellAnd now, for somethng completely different.
A customer needed a tape drive. 4/8GB Travan, to be precise.
I soon found out that this was an endangered species. Tech Data showed that their California appendage had two on order...with an ETA of 01/01/2010.

No, seriously, it's been replaced with a bigger capacity drive, which still reads the 4/8GB tapes, so it's all good.
