ROFL! I like the paper platter idea the best!

I'm looking forward to trying the new "Orb" if it doesn't become vaporware. It sounds like it may greatly improve on the Syquest technology. Castlewood is the company that is working on it. I also like the Sony HiFD idea. But it will only handle 200MB per disk. But storing data in a zipped file could get several times that amount of data backed up on each disk as that's how we have used the Syquest drives in the past. And I would almost do anything to get rid of the damn floppy drive!

By the way, I've enjoyed your newsletter for a long time. Thanks.
