I just got my case in the mail today. Didn't cost me a cent. And you get what
you pay for. The case is made out of something like plastic coated paper.
Extremely flimsy. I doubt it will last me a week...

What is needed is a hard plastic case. I cut the divider out of one of those
hard plastic floppy disk holders that takes five 3.5" disks, and it works like
a charm.
