Hello Jonatan,

# 	the HP Colorado T1000 comes in two flavors:  floppy and parallel.
# 	capacity is 400MB native, 800MB (approx) compressed.  thruput 
# 	will be *slow*.  unless you have no other choice, you  dont want 
# 	this device.

	I was always under impression that Colorado is crap...

# 	get yourself a nice scsi tape unit 1.3GB native for the same price.

	Can you recommend some one-two reliable brands (exact unit models)?

	Thanks!
