hunting for disk images).

I just looked at the site, and I find it interesting, and ironic, that the DD disks cost more than the HD disks. For the entire time they were BOTH available in stores, the opposite was true.

I'm not sure if I want to order from them, I just wanted a 10-pack. Then again, I could probably split it with the person who prompted me to need a 10-pack. Somebody I know was just given an old Apple IIe system with 2 5.25" drives and a monitor, but no software.

He's asked me if I can give him some software to get it going. That's not a problem, except that I've only got 3 blank 5.25" disks left in the box.
