Cassete through the wash???
uhm, did it once with a micro cassette, and all it did was make a very
useless streamer, but there were no parites to use it at, so it just
got trashed...
I don't know how much I'd trust the MD for data integrety after a washing,
as it would probably damage the lube layer on the media, but the data
would still be recoverable for a few rounds of transfering...
MD Rocks!!!!
