Well I tried hard to get these drivers - (they could'nt be that large that I
won't disassemble - though i hat xxx86 :-)) - but have you ever tried to get
software for hardware here in germany ? forget about it. My dealer told me
something about waiting a few weeks - I am actually waiting three months and
nothing happend :-(

Now I own a DJ10 on a machin running linux and can't use it - I hope my
streamer head won't get dulled by rust :-)

Can anyone send me these QIC specifications ? I'd like to spend a bit of
time in implementing my tape, but disassembling TAPE.EXE or CPBACKUP.EXE -
sorry, but there must be an easier way !!!
