I have them but it would likely be easier to find them on the web since I'm
also lazy. Several dealers supply them as well as Mydos and SpartaDos on disk.
Look for Best Electronics or B and C Computers. Spartados is also available on
cartridge. I wasn't able to find their URLs. B&C advertizes regularly on
comp.sys.atari.8bit.
The OS are also in the UMich archives but that involves transferring them to
disk. Stay away from Dos 3, it's buggy as hell.
I'm attaching the FAQ Welcome list for csa8bit.
