Yeah, and you can probably guess which software they junked, if I

and 120 floppy-interface drives.
Fortunately, our lab was right beside the surplus barn and the first
computer I found with the right drive also had Jumbo still installed.
All I had to do was add an ethernet card and map a server drive.
Yes, it was still an all-Windows shop and probably still is, and yes,
they were still using a different off-the-shelf proprietary backup tool.
Some directors are just incapable of learning.
