I know you guys will say I am lucky to get any driver but:

The current driver for the QIC-02 seems very slow, the driver seems
to inch it's way down the tape. I know under SCO (spit) the same drive
"streams" most of the time. I guess it is all down to the buffering etc.

Is there a faster driver anywhere. If not I might roll up the sleeves
and have a go at it myself.

Thanks
Damian
