Submission + - Poll; Do you still use tape drives?
Digimer writes: "Four year ago I began writing an open-source backup program. I made the decision back then that I would not support tape drives, as I felt they were obsolete in the face of cheap, large "disk" storage. As I began demo'ing the first version a couple years ago, the most frequent question I got was "Does it support tape drives?".
Now, I am writing the next version. So I want to ask Slashdot to help me with a very formal, scientific poll:
1. Do you use tape drives?
2. If you were looking at a new backup solution, would you want it to support tape drives?"
