Rolin,
No big deal, I was just refering to the language of Fanuc when they talk about their memory. They refer to the amount of memory available for upgrades in feet of tape.
Why, because they still deal with customers who have paper or mylar tape for program storage and downloading. I have not had to use tape for 10 years now and would not wish the old methods on anyone, except an enemy...
I'm hoping the more of us customers who abandon the old ways, the sooner the machine builders out there will too.
