I am presently using Fastback on a Deskpro 286 with a 1.2meg
floppy as my backup drive.  Fastback writes the backup files in
its own format at full density.  Although I'm not sure whether
Fastback can create 360K Floppy backups on a 1.2meg drive, I have
been able to successfully read backups made on a PC-XT's 360K drive
with my 1.2meg drive without a hitch.
