What goes around, comes around. Anyone else here
ever have a home computer in the 80's and saved
stuff to audio cassette tapes?

DAT is Digital, but it's still Audio Tape. :)

Hmmm, also in the 80's was a gizmo called the
Danmere Backer which used any ordinary VHS VCR for
data backup with a pretty large capacity. Now Digital
VHS is available...
