I received 2 copies of each diskette that Tom created

Compaq Portable III booted both the setup disks successfully. (also no
write protects were killed in the testing)
The images are created from Soft Paq's that I archived before
ftp.compaq.com had them removed, and are not copies, but rather
generated from those utilities. If anyone needs more information on
those let me know. I have both the 720k and 360k versions. Tom was
careful to use blank diskettes in a high density drive, etc. to create
the 360k ones I tried.
Any chance you could make those available somewhere? I have two
Portable IIs that I need to restore and would like these on-hand.
