We have an ongoing need for 800 bpi capability (incoming > petrophysical field tapes) that will need to be read on an 8810. > We will NOT have a Unibus, so other suggestions would help. An off the wall suggestion: get a MicroVAX, buy a tape controller and hook your 800 bpi tape to it and then make the MicroVAX and LAVC satellite with the 8810 the boot member. = Frank J.
