I'm not going to say that since I still have a stinking Colorado 350 in
this machine that I can't find the money to replace with a nice DAT drive.
Even though its nowhere near as good as the newer drives, i still don't
want to throw it away.  It doesn't work at all with ft in FreeBSD
right now, however.  At least slow backups will be better than no backups.
