All;
I'm curious as to what other manufacturers/systems supported the use of
block-oriented magnetic tape media along the lines of the DECtape (TU56)
and DECassette (TU60) drives.
Just rememebred another HP one, the HP82161. This takes special
cassettes, a bit liek a Philips Minicassette (not a microcassette), but
not quite the same (the minicassettes do not fit). It has an HPIL host
interface and uses something called the 'Filbert Protocol' (FIlbert beign
the code name for the HP82161) which is reasonably well docuemanted.
