No HDs on my //e?



	I was running low (well, out =^) of floppies for my //e so
I went to buy some (5.25) floppies.  All they had were High Density
disks, no (lower priced) Double Density disks.  I shrugged and
bought a 30 disk set of disks (best bytes for the buck. =^)

	Came home, popped one in the disk drive to format (these
say "MD-2HD IBM PC/AT Formatted") and "Error, Track $00" *stop*
These things aren't supposed to format on my //e?  (and there's
more to diskettes than just flat discs of "magnetic stuff"?)

	Not a total loss I suppose, I have a HD 5.25" drive on
my PeeCee. (unless anyone wants to buy 'em)
