Wellllll,..... That is the July update, but even I can't explain what the
numbers mean (and I am responsible for sending out probably 10 of those per
week). That particular designation means it is 1/4" tape (hence the "53" on
the end), but that will only be valid for this update. (IE. U401152 == disks,
U401153 == 1/4" tape, and U401154 == 8mm tape.)
