A few days ago, I posted a note asking for peoples thoughts about starting an archive for sound file images of cassette tapes. The couple of people I've heard from were fairly possitive about it, so I've decided to take the initiative and begin one. I have a two gig hard disk connected to my Amiga 3000, and am willing to use most of it to hold such an archive. Now I'd like to ask for subscribers to this list to email me images of data tapes that they may have for ANY classic computer platform. I would like to ask you do the following when doing so though: 1) Save the image as a .WAV file 2) Try to verify that the image will restore to a usuable tape, and load and run on the computer 3) include a short text file with a description and any comments such as required hardware or key commands 4) archive the files with either PKZIP or LHA 5) don't email me more than 2 images at a time. I am open to any comments or suggestions concerning this, including suggestions on what would be a good name for the archive. I also have a 2.5gig 8mm tape drive connected to my Amiga, so it would be fairly easy to back the archive up on occassion.
