        Seems this topic comes up regularly.  Ok I'll byte.  Only takes
a little Bandwidth and we might spot some trends....


        Maxell has been good for me.  I have about 8 of these, and one
is the boot disk I've been using for 5 months.

        Of course, I have these grey disks which are only about 50 cents
each and very few of them have failed either.  I have a couple of "CH" disks
which are suprising more durable than the others, the plastic is much more
solid.  Not enough data on these yet, but none have failed.

        In general I subscribe to the color theory proposed, I think,
by Leo in the past,

                        Best   -   Blue
                         2nd   -   Grey
                         3rd   -   Black (generally un-reliable)

which, of course makes little or no sence but????

                              
                                                        Wade.
