Anyone know of a source of some inexpensive 5.25" hard sector diskettes (as
used in North Star and some Heathkit computers - 10 sectors)?

They used to show up regularly on E-bay. One guy was selling them for
the software on them. IIRC I bought a set of ten for less than $10.

Barry, I have them. I purchase them in bulk, new, direct from a
manufacturer. Given the relatively low demand for the item from the
manufacturer's perspective, I think it's safe to say that they're not
"cheap", but 2004 price is comparable to 1982 price. Contact me off list if
you're interested. I also post kits of 10 preloaded with various operating
system masters for North Star and Heath on VCM from time to time. --Patrick
