seems to be able to utilize a tape drive on the parallel port. I don't
know if the drive used is the same as the parallel port PC tape drives,
though. IF these drives are standardized in a way this MIGHT be working,
but if every manufacturer makes their own standards… well, having a tape
drive at PAR: is not like SCSI with standardized pin-assignments and
signals and everything… Does the tape drive work with all sorts of
backup software? Either way, if you tell me what kind of drive you have on
the PC I might ask them if it will work, ok?
