> Does anyone know how big (dimensions, weight) an IBM 3420, and a 3083 > are? Guessing at the size, I would say about 36 by 32 by 60 inches. The tape unit and controller are the same size. The 3803 is roughly 650 pounds (280 kg), and the 3420 is just a tad lighter. William Donzelli aw288 at osfn.org
