Has anyone ever heard of an option to convert data to aduio and then to =
play it through a soundcard into a tape recorder and on to an ordinary =
audio tape? I was just thinking about it. Data through a modem is at domain =
56kbits/s. If an audio tape is capable of sounds of twice or 3x that, =
then you could store anything from 40 - 60mb on a normal tape. This is =
cool because a normal tape costs less then =A35 for about 10 around here =
(there pritty crappy tapes, but work well!). Anyway, anyone have any =
ideas? Twould be nice if it worked on windows and linux, or even java!!! =
