Rehi boys and gals'

I thank all of you for the info you sent about the backup tape, i have decided
to post the two main companies i got answers about.
I thank again for all of you who sent answers!
Here are the two companies and quoted comments on their products:

    "Microstorage Technology"
     Trudos House,
     Heath Ride,
     Wokingham,
     Berks.
     RG11 3QJ
     Telephone:0734 733414

Last time I enquired, it costs 212.75 pounds Sterling plus however
much they are going to charge you for shipping; I think it would be a good
idea if you called them to discuss the purchase or there is a FAX number
0734 730508 if you have access to a Facsimilie machine.  If you have any
problems getting through I will try contacting them - their telephone
`support' is pretty good.

        Omnitronix, Inc.
        760 Harrison Street
        Seattle, WA  98109
        (206) 624-4985


The opinions i got as for this company are so-so.
it backs up 55megs per hour. not very good, 219$ or so.

Good luck!
