     Gee, does that mean if it takes a woman 9 months to have a baby,
then
     it's possible to produce a baby in 1 month with 9 pregnant women?

I guess it's central coordination, decentral media - one of the
OpenVision
NetBackup config options, if I'm informed correclty. So: take 1000
workstations, attach a DAT to each, use NetBackup to initiate backup
centrally, and - bingo - you'll have a data rate of 150MB/s-plus.

It depends on what you need...
