We spoke with our vending services people - the bottom row of the candy
machine contains floppy disks, DS/DD and HD.  They are expensive but if you
are working in our 24 hour lab and you've gotta have it, it works! I don't
believe they even had to change anything in the vending machine except the
price (it did not require retrofitting).  Besides who has heard of a
computer lab without a vending machine right outside the door!   :-)
This has been in place for over a year and has worked well.  There may be
other solutions, as I suspect we'll hear, but it's nice to have a solution
that didn't require additional hardware!
