A question to you old-timer NeXT users -- How are you handling backing up your
330 or 660 meg hard disks? Are you doing your backup on optical disk, or by
taking a compressed tarred backup set to (mainframe) tape via FTP, or ?

A related question for those of you who've purchased (blank) optical disks for
the NeXT -- is there any alternative to buying the disks directly from NeXT? I
am, of course, interested in identifying a distributor with low prices and
rapid delivery and a willingness to accept University P.O.'s  [Yeah, I know,
dream on, right? Well, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.]
