I tried to get this $50 deal from IBM last summer. If somebody has the number
to a cluefull person or place to call to get this please lemme know. They put me
through the mill and I finally gave up and sold the machine I had. I am
thinking IBM stands for Ignorant Bullies (un) Medicated

I first tried to order the disks from the website but was told they could not
complete my order and I would need to contact them in regards to my order.
