> DECtape.  How about reel-to-reel DECtape....

I _love_ reel-to-reel DECtape and always have.  I even took the old drives
off our PDP-11 and hung them on our VAX-750 when it was delivered.  I couldn't
figure out how to get the tapes formatted, though, since the timing was
via CPU spin loop, and the formatter was in assembler.  *sigh*
