- I purchased a Wangtek from Apunix for < $200 a few months ago. I also
- paid extra for a chassis & power supply. It is my understanding that they
- had a limited number of drives available at this price, so they may no longer
- be available, but it is certainly worth giving them a call.

- They are at 619/495-9230 or apunix!sales@ucsd.edu

- They were also _EXTREMELY_ pleasant to work with, and gave me a complete HW
- manual for the tape drive.
