   We had systems who's developer decided that the computer which
   generated a tape would be part of thier standard header.  During
   testing of a port from an 11/34 to an 11/44 someone noted that the 
   tapes still were still labled 11/34.  I told him that the only
   possible impact was that the software on the receiving computer
   (a DECSYSTEM-2050) might care, and changing it would break that
   software.

   The developer's standard computer label was not part of my standard.
