Apple Floppy Drives (was: More Apple Pimpers)

And I am probably a good test of real world abuse to the Apple Drive ][ drives, as I was just a wee child, and I didn't follow any rules that I probably should have. (I always put the disk in the drive, closed it, and turned on the computer... I would pull disks out, and replace them while the drive was reading or writing, I would power off the computer or reset it during read/write, I didn't use dust sleaves, I touched the disk media directly, wrote with ball point pens on the disk labels AFTER putting them on the disk, I used cheap no name brand bulk disks of any kind, and used a hole punch to make them double sided... and at one point, even stapled a peice of paper to a disk... and that staple is the ONLY time I can think of that I screwed up a disk... two holes and a long dent will do that. So I would have to say, the Apple II disk system was pretty freakin' stable and reliable to put up with all my abuse)
