[TriLUG] Safest long-term media

[Christopher L Merrill]

How about "PaperBack"?

At 250M per ream of paper, a $40 box + a $80 laser toner cartridge
will get 2.5G of data backed up on good old reliable paper.  The
great part is you can SEE if your media has degraded ;)
You'll probably want a scanner with a sheet-feeder when it's time
to restore the data :)

Not sure if there is a linux port.
