When I first started using the A1000, I noticed about 1 in 10
disks failed.  Generally these were the generic disks PiM sends
Fish disks on, however I also had one of my Fuji floppys fail.
Since I had heard (here) many recommendations for Sony floppys,
I search about this cow town until I found the only supplier
with real Sonys with Sony labels in a Sony box.  (Several had
floppys they claimed were made by Sony, but with their own Logo.)
I was aghast when 3 out of the 10 failed.  In disgust, I went
back to buying only Fuji.  I now have about 150 Fuji disks.
Still, only one of them has failed.
