I just purchased a box of 10 diskettes for the MAC. Three of them will not
insert fully into the drive.  They were a box of Apple disks, Serial No.
W272412. The bad disks would not push in the last couple of mm. to click into
the slot.  There is no obvious size discrrepancy, but appearance suggests that
metal cover over exposed medium may be sprung or bent out.  Supported by
slight catching as disk withdrawn. Remaining seven in box wworked fine.
Confirmed by repeated tries to insert.

Better check each diskette when youpurchase them!!!!!!
