My experience was that people used gummy labels on removeable disks and boy
did they do a number on the disk and drives when they heated up and started
flying around.

And here I was gonna make a snide comment about Sharpie markers not being
around when 2314's were in use. Then I thought better and looked it up
first
on wikipedia, before I opened my mouth and inserted my foot. Sharpies were
first introduced in 1964, so I stand corrected......er.....ummmmm.....well,
I
*sit* corrected.....how 'bout that?! And if not a 2314, what about a
3330?!
Sorta the same difference, ay?!
