Here's a weird one: about 80% of the floppies I've used in conjunction with
Hack 1.03 or with Nethack on the ST have developed errors (as in critical error
alert boxes). About 1% of other floppies have developed such errors. Is
there any way this could be something besides a coincidence?
And a related odd thought: if a floppy was used in a drive that was mis-
aligned, could that cause it to be un-formatable on a properly aligned drive?
