Peter,

I was alerted to your post by another subscriber.

You might be interested to read a recent white paper we have posted on our 
website entitled "Playing Catch-up With Your Tape Library". It discusses how 
many companies have given up waiting for disk to disk to deliver and are 
making plans to stick with tape.

The paper can be found at http://tapetrack.com/resources/whitepapers/
