> ... DAT decks are on the verge of replacing CD's
 
Were you referring to it as a backup storage system?  Why wait for DATs???
Most people already have VCRs.  VCRs hold OOOdles of computer data on nice
reliable 1/2" tapes.  The IBM world already has boards to interface their
computers with VCRs.  And DATs have been scuttled by nervous North American
manufacturers who are afraid they will be used for piracy.  Judging by the
computer software market, they're right.  In many people's minds, DAT is
dead.  Is anyone working on VCR-Amiga interfaces for archiving????  Julie
