I supsect that the Sony SMC-70 may have been among the first systems to 
come out with the things.

Fortunately, I still have several cartons (duplicator grade) of blank 
DSDD 3.5" mdedia.  A few months ago, I gave away (FFS) about 1,000 of 
the things.

I suspect that the the world's supply is far from exhausted.  Lots of 
common word processors also used them (e.g. Brother).
