I've not looked them out for years, but I'm certain that's what they
were called. I think they later offered a CD, rather than 3.5" floppy
disc, but I used so little colour film I can't be sure. I'm glad to
hear they are still good to go for you.

If I remember correctly from my days running the mini-lab, the Kodak CD
that was available with your processed film & prints the images were
standard, low-compression JPEGs that would allow you to print a 4x6 at
300ppi (1200x1800 pixels).
There were also "Professional" picture disks with 6mp scans in a
propitiatory Kodak image format, supporting a maximum resolution of 6mp,
and a file extension of PCD. That was back when Kodak propaganda was
saying that 6mp was all a professional needed, before their 14mp FF
digital SLR, after it's release that claim was quickly forgotten.
