Msg 46416 is 08 line(s) on 08/12/93 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to MICHAEL SHARTIAG re: R/THE WRITTEN RECORD Gee, did they even spell my name right? I was talking to a lady friend the other "year" and she had just started working at Microsoft, and said they had this cool huge database they could search. "OH, lets look you up in it!". I suggested "No, lets not, lets look up a WRONG spelling, like "Christiansen" or something. Sure enough, found 2 hits, on XMODEM. Heh. I DO admit I do occasionally look in a book - looked in "computer Jargon" the other day, it had Xmodem, but no derivation. Msg 46417 is 06 line(s) on 08/13/93 from MICHAEL SHARTIAG to ALL re: SCSI TAPE SOFTWARE I have recently come into a nice SCSI based tape backup unit. I have even found several manufacturers that sem to use this drive. The problem is that I don't really want to spend $800 or so for the software ! Is there a generic type program out there that will let me use this ? Central points product Back-it-up (or something) works with all QIC 40/ 80 tapes. Is there a product out there that supports SCSI ?? dup. chars. >Function:?s
