I was given a Kaypro 4 that had belonged to my

about 6 years ago, and the machine was stored in a unventilated garage

I am a retired disabled vet, and only have a newer laptop and with no 5
1/4 drive to be able to recreate the disks from the archives.
I would be very great-full if someone could supply me with a set of CP/M
OS disks, a basic interpreter and compiler, and maybe some games.
I'm more than willing to pay a modest amount for materials and time.
Also can anyone know where I can purchase floppy disks for the Kaypro
Thanks in advance

I don't currently have any Kaypro 4 disks but the Kaypro II, 4, 10 all used
soft sectored low-density 5 1/4 inch disks.
If someone has disk images available it would be possible to write them out
on a PC with 360K drives and use them in your Kaypro (Presuming that the PC
drive and your kaypro's drive are fairly close to being in alignment.
