-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii "Travis Roy" <travis at scootz.net> writes: > two biggest customers still send us lists on 1/2" mag reel tape. Of > course we do all our work on very old AS/400 (we're getting a new one > next week). Actually, anybody know much about the whole AS/400 stuff? That reminds me, a while back when I was digging through my storage room, I ran across a few old 9-track tapes with backups of my college course work. I emailed a friend who still works there, to see if I could bring the tapes over there to read and copy to my laptop, so I could ultimately burn them onto CDR before the tapes decayed away. However, they no longer have any equipment for reel tapes. While it's not a particularly big priority, it would be kinda nice to recover the contents of the tapes at some point, if they're still readable. Is there any chance I could bring them over sometime to read them? Or if not, does anyone else have access to a 9-track tape drive that I could borrow a little time on?
