This isn't a very technical matter, but I'm sure many of us have numerous SAM 
disks scattered around.

Until now, I've used those cheapo hinged boxes with clear plastic lids, which 
hold 100 disks at a time.

Today after work, I was browsing in a BOOKSALE store in Birmingham's city 
centre. Among the crap CDs and discontinued cookery books was a display of 
cassette, video and disk storage items. One that caught my eye was a 
well-made unit holding up to 240 floppy disks. It takes the form of a rigid 
box holding a draw with two rows of 120 spaces for disks. The overall look is 
compact and tidy, but spacious. The beauty of this storage system is that 
other units can be added on top of it, and secured by clips. They'll prove to 
be very useful for me, as I can store hundreds of my disks neatly, at long 
last.

The price for these units is £4.99, and bears the name "Atlanta  Computer 
Supplies" They come unassembled, but the instructions are simple to follow. 
If you've a shop like BOOKSALE, or other store selling such remaindered 
stuff, it may be worth a look. All I ask is for you to steer clear of the 
Birmingham one for a few days until I buy two or three more...
