Heh, 2.88" disks were like unicorns. I heard all about them, but I never saw them for sale or people using them.
I have 2 or 3 drives, one from an IBM machine and one or two from 3Com Netbuilders. I have probably a dozen or so disks, mostly from 3Com software distributions.
The 20M floptical in the SGI Indy is like a tooth fairy riding a unicorn, I've seen pictures, but I've never actually seen one (or the disks) in person.
I have a couple of those, too. They're prone to suffering from dust, though. The biggest air intake on the front of an Indy is... guess where. I had trouble finding media, too, until someone from 3M let me have some "samples".
