semi-OT: Replacement OS/2 Install Media

We used in my job from OS/2 1.3 to OS/2 4.5 advanced.
All in spanish, but some of the first versions were English
versions. I can check if we have yet the OS/2 Warp English
version in CD-ROM (and operative). In this case I could
send you one copy.

Greetings from Spain
