Sorry for all of the typo's in the PowerPoint posting, oh well,
another question.  We're getting to have a reasonable number of 
macs here, and I'm tired of backing up to disk.  If I get one tape
drive can I back up all macs on the appletalk, or do I have to
move the drive from mac to mac?  It seems obvious, but the drives do
come with backup software don't they.

What's your favorite tape drive?  Why?  How good is the interface for
restoring a single file?  It seems like the backup software ought to
let me select files from an SFGetFile style dialog box, rather than make
me go through all disks one file at a time.

Mike
