They are ordinary floppies.  Don't worry about what part number they
want you to buy.  My brother owns an MCS system, and I've fixed it for
him.   It uses the same crummy floppy drives that PCs do (except they
are single sided).  Any reasonable floppies being sold for PCs will work
just fine.  You can also buy a drive from the back of a computer mag.
for about $60 and hook it up, instead of paying Compugraphic $400 or
$500 (assuming you have space remaining on your controller).
