I was speaking of actual tape archives on actual tapes. Not files 
pretending to be tapes, but you know, those long skinny things wound 
around spools. :-)  I am not sure how a pretty GUI on the front might or

  Ever notice how people in a zombie movie never already know how to
  kill zombies? Ask 100 random people in America how to kill someone
  who has reanimated from the dead in a secret viral weapons lab,
  and how many do you think already know you need a head-shot?
