Subj: DISK CLEANING KITS

Rick, 
 
Howdy! 
 
Been logging on every few weeks from out here in Billings, Montana,  and sure
am glad your board is alive and well. 
 
Tell me, do you or does anyone reading this thread, know of the  availability
of single-side disk cleaning kits for the PDD2 or for  that matter, the PDD1? 
 
Trouble is, the only place I can find a 3.5" single-side cleaning kit  is Radio
Shack. But my latest trip to Radio Shack turned up a so-
called dual drive cleaning kit, where you had to buy the 5.25"  cleaning disk
along with the 3.5" size. The 3.5" part of the kit  could be used single or
double-sided. And every other 3.5" cleaning  kit, made by other manufacturers,
is only usable in dual-side drives.
 
Don't you hate it when you have to buy stuff you don't need to get  what you do
need? Went to buy some shoelaces the other day and they  hit me with two sets,
both all sealed up in a plastic wrap. It's not  the money, it's the principle.
Guess that's what the bean-counters  call marketing now. 
 
Best Regards, 
 
...Paul
