Be prepared to have you inbox filled, and there are quite a few users who have joined this list long enough to get their questions answered and then gone again. My guess is that for every reply you actually get, 20+ have come, and gone, and will not see your question at all. But they are users nonetheless. I'm not a company myself, just a home user, 2 machines, using a cheap changer that uses DDS2 tapes. About 70 gigs of data, 7 day cycle on 28 tapes covers it nicely. As to collecting a list of users, that sound like a good idea, but this is pretty much an all volunteer group. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
