3687.0. "TZ89 product information" by SANITY::LEMONS (And we thank you for your support.) Tue Mar 04 1997 01:29

    Where can I find information on the TZ89?  A dir/title didn't yield
    anything useful (like an announcement), and a search of
    http://www.storage.digital.com didn't find the device, either.
    
    Specifically, I'm wondering what media this drive supports: will it use
    CompacTape IV, or some other?
    
    Thanks!

    The TZ89 has not been announced as of yet.  Check with product
    managmenet until it is officially announced.

	It might be reasonable to assume that a Digital DLT drive
	called the TZ89, might resemble a DLT 7000 from Quantum.
	If you can't get hold of the product manager easily try
	the Quantum homepage...  It might also be reasonable to
	assume that there are subtle differences in the drives,
	so the final word on the subject should be reserved to
	the product manager.

    No wonder I couldn't find much about the drive.  Duh.  Sorry for not
    realizing that it is still a future!
