Thanks for the quick info.  I learned today from our vendor that, apparently,
the DLT2000 drives are no longer being manufactured, and they're being replaced
with the 2000LX drive (apparently 15-30G, rather than 10-20G).

I presume that those drives will be supported as well, as they enter the
market.  (I don't know much technically about them, for all I know they could
just use longer tape.)

Thanks again,
