I used to have a big stockpile of write enable/protect stickon tabs for
diskettes but it's gradually getting whittled down to a precious few dozen.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where more can be obtained? Note that
these have to be the removable opaque BLACK tabs. (I've got a bunch of 3M
clear red tabs that don't work at all on some drives.)
Cheers,
Chuck

Its not pretty, but I've used electrical tape in the past.

Eew--gets gummy if you forget and leave it on too long! I'd rather that
the adhesive dry out and the tab fall off!

Avery has some 1.5x0.5" silver foil labels at about $50 per 100 sheets of
100, but I don't think they're removable once affixed.

Surely it's easy enough to take small white sticky-tabs such as can be
found at pretty much any office-supply store (at least around here) and
liberally blacken them with a black felt-tip pen?
