   I'm looking to buy a tape drive for my '386 clone - is there any
 kind of "standard" out there - such that a driver written for tape system
 A will work on tape system B.  I'm including in the definition of "tape
 system" the controller, etc...  Stated simply, is tape system A hardware
 compatible with tape system B?
