Yes, I was able to determine that the TurboDOS 1.41c disks which would complete my particular setup do exist and that they are in good hands, however I have not been able to get copies of the disks as of yet. I'm hoping that patience will prevail and perhaps another copy will turn up or the copies that I know about might someday become available.
The 16-bit 1.43 version that you need is readily available as 5.25" disk images. I've got copies of them and they work well. If you need it on 8" floppy, I can probably convert them using my IMS system to write them to 8". Getting a system up and running is not that difficult, I can guide you through if there's any trouble.

I'd like to try getting a 16-bit 1.43 running, there is a set of disks on ebay, but the seller has blocked me https://www.ebay.com/itm/193098921854 On 6/28/19 7:17 PM, Jonathan Haddox via cctalk wrote: > Just sending a thanks for the replies from various folks on this list.
