- There is one important point that I haven't seen mentioned. That is media
- costs. The BEST price that I've seen for the 6250 QIC tapes is $26.99. At
- that price, media costs accumulate rapidly. I'm told that the 4mm tapes are
- pretty cheap. If you intend to use very many tapes, it would be cheaper in
- the long run to buy the 4mm even though they cost much more.
