This seems to herald the demise of the format. Here's a link or two It's in this neatorama post. http://www.neatorama.com <http://www.neatorama.com/> and more boringly here at pcmag http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2363055,00.asp Now I know you still need them to do your sysdefs and reconciles, especially if you have old Sun boxes. So I'm willing to help a brother out. I am selling unused 3.5" floppies for $400 a piece WHILE THEY LAST. Jump in and get them early, they won't last at these prices.
