At that moment, I took the knife next to the computer to insert gently the blade into the drive above the diskette. It worked most of the time :p.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who routinely stabbed my computer! I used to keep a butter knife by my iMac to help eject CDs. I had the first slot-loading model and the rubber eject rollers they used seemed to lose their grip after a while.
