For $79 more, they sold me a copy of Retrospect. I have been very happy with both (for the 1 week I've owned them). jas -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeffrey A.

I did more or less the same thing as Jeff Sullivan, except with the Ruby Stardrive 150 TX (also a TEAC) and have had similar good results. Ian Chai chai@cs.ukans.edu 2fntnougat@ukanvax.bitnet
