	etc..  is appreciated.  If you have *experience* with a DAT drive, I'd
	like to hear about it too.  (The November '90 BYTE had an article &

If you have a SCSI interface on your 3B2, the SONY DAT may be just what you're
looking for: 2GB in a "cassette" that easily fits in one's shirt pocket.  The
drive itself is full-height, 5-1/4" HD size, and requires only as much power
as a "typical" HD.

Sorry, I don't have the model number.  I only briefly saw that DAT unit at a
users' group meeting.  The SONY office you need to contact is located in San
Jose, CA (suggest calling info operator at 408/555-1212 for their number).
