Somebody probably has it. You've mailed a list of several hundred
(thousand?) computer enthusiasts, rather than a shop which might
actually stock things.
I don't have a copy, as it happens.

Do you have an external 5 1/4" floppy drive, or are
you trying to find a bootable, Dos 3.3 disk on 3 1/2"?
Dos 3.3 doesn't support 3 1/2" disks natively, and
while I know that there were various hacks and kludges
to make Dos 3.3 work on the 3 1/2" disks, I've never
worked with them.
If you have a 5 1/4" drive, then I can get you a
disk...
Or are you really looking for ProDOS? ProDOS was
developed to take advantage of 3 1/2" disks, hard
drives, RAM disks, and all sorts of neat stuff. The
IIc+ would have shipped with ProDOS.

Yes, sometimes relevant posts from non-subscribers go through. I think
it's usually obvious which these are and, yes, if you've got anything
useful to say you should cc the poster if you want them to see it.
