I was wondering if someone could provide me with tape length info or
comparisions between say Sony 8mm and EXATAPE

I received a single EXATAPE 8mm 112m (minutes meters ??) and wonder if
this is equialalent to say a Sony P6-120MB that I know stores 2.3GB.

A little equivalence chart with tape lengths and approx storage would be
great. If nothing else an 800 for Exabyte so I can call them.

Thanks for any info
