	Can someone answer a question for me?  How many blocks
	can be stored on a floppy with the 3B2/300?  I'm not using 
	the sysadm menu (could manually scribe the info in that 
	amount of time), and I'm not mounting a file system.
	I'm just using:
		find . -print | cpio -ocvm > /dev/diskette
	to backup entire directories (directories of dbase files)
	on a daily basis.  What is the limit on the number of 
	blocks that can be stored on DD, DS, 96TPI floppies?
	how about 48TPI's? 

				Thanks in advance.
