TwiliteZoner Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 I work at IBM and was walking by the desktop support area when I noticed that they had an old pc setup there that was using what looked like 2 1050 drives in one case. I know they were not 1050's but I swear this case looked like something Atari would have produced for the XL line. Anyone else every see these?? I will have to take a picture and post it here.

I was doing a contract project at a firm in Manhattan back in 1991, they had their Novell servers backing up with a tape drive system from some 3rd party firm that were in actual 1050 Cases, so it seems the old 1050 mold die's made the rounds.
