What ever happened to the TK70 cartridge drives?  The things can store
almost 400 MB - 300 MB more than the TK50 that is available for the
3100.  The TK70 is not even an option with the 3100.  The (mostly)
salespeople I spoke with at the 3100 unveiling danced around this
question.  What's the real story - I've had no more problems with my 2
TK70s than I've had with any other tape drive.  Fred - you there?
Thanks
