I would appreciate a quick summary of tape backup solutions that
work with Xenix (286 or 386).  Although I see discount 60 Mbyte
tape drives for sale for around $750, it is not clear that they
will work with Xenix tape drivers.  And if they do, will they
also interchange with a Sun3/50 tape drive?  The only tape drive
that is guaranteed to do this that I know of comes from Bell
Technologies for around $1500.
