I still have (at least 40) systems that can read and write floppies.  I 
will not start a new system with floppy and llikely new programs will be 
either on line (saerial down load) or on media thaats compatable with an 
existing system.  If incompatable
then its either a coding issue for a differrnt format but still within 
exisiting
softector capability (1771, 1783, 765) or its oddball enough to be 
likely some hardsector format I don't have.  The trouble maker know is 
Intel DD 8" (m2FM)
as there are no chips for that and it is softsector.
