Hehe, I forget! Who was looking for a nice IBM tape drive? Guess you would have to buy the tape drive controller unit, also up for bids.

I've always dream of hooking one up to get get the reels spinning and the lights flashing. That would make a hell of a conversation piece.
Too heavy to get into the house though :lol:

That's exactly why I would get it, as a conversational peace, and just as another part of my collection. He has three for sale right now, and he says he has five total. I don't know where I would put it. Maybe in the game-room?:)
And to tell you the truth, they don't weight to much, they role around really easy.
