up twice as much data in an hour as its closest competitor.
Other announcements included availability of Mammoth in Exabyte’s
line of 8mm tape libraries; the introduction of a new 8mm tape library
for the midrange market; shipment of new AME (Advanced Metal Evaporated)
Exatape for use with Mammoth; and agreements with eight distributors
