If you used good sisk and stored them right there's a good chance they'll
¨still work.  I bought my Atari 600XL amd a XF551 drive a couple months ago
¨and found some of my old floppies and all the good brand name ones worked
¨like I wrote them last week.   The off brand stuff had issues..  Use to be
a ¨store called "Steals" and they sold floppies under the store
name, and those ¨didn't fair as well.  Steals was like what Staples is
today, they sold ¨OK name brand stuff, as well as low end stuff under the
store name.
