Today I bought a Disk Drive Cleaning kit with cleaning disks for both 3.5
and 5.25 drives at RadioShack. Above the cleaning kits I found some new
RadioShack 5.25 disks. I didn't grab any though because I have about 11
unopened boxes of 5.25 disks that I found in a garauge sale.
Now to figure out how I'm going to use this cleaning kit with my
IIGS....it only has MS-DOS instructions.....
