a brief news item in the current issue of DEC Professional
(Vol 8, No 12 (Nov 1989) p 18) claims that DEC has plans
to offer "a 4mm solution" for backup devices.  does anybody
have any news/rumors on the recording format that DEC will
employ (HP/Sony, Gigatrend, or some proprietary DEC format)
and when such a device would be available?
