From:  Arthur Gottlieb <gottlieb@bbn-unix>

We are in the process of configuring a VAX 750 to run UNIX.  DEC would
dearly love to sell us a TU80 tape drive.  The drive is supposed to be 25
ips start/stop and 100 ips streaming.  We will be backing up RA81's (~400
Mbytes) and 25 ips is clearly unacceptable.  Has anyone had any experience
with these drives?  Can they be made to stream under UNIX?  Please send
replies to gottlieb@bbn-unix.  Thanks,  Arthur
