PRODOS: a new aproach to copying it



I do not have a copy of Prodos on a floppy and need it.  Yes I could order it 
snail mail from the diminishing number of suppliers but....I am the original 
backroom tinkerer and want to see if I can get my older boxes talking w/o the 
need to resort to snail mail  (I will give up eventually, but for now...)   I 
recently got my grubby hands on an old Central Point Deluxe Options Card.  For 
those who do not know this is a ISA card for the PC that daisy-chains on the 
floppy port and allows one to copy or write different formats including Atari, 
Commodore Mac, annd even Apple (on a 360k drive only). I even found the copy 
SW on the net that drives this puppy. I loaded it on a 486 and son of a gun it 
works!
  Now, my idea: does anyone have a GS up on the net and can they email, ftp 
etc a copy of ProDos? I was thinking a disk immage of whatever  that 
also included the opsys might work....
 I have a copy already on an Alltec drive that so far I cannot get to so I 
already own it...  Yeah, I'm the guy with the Franklin 1200 (and now a buncha 
other Apple HW, but no SW :(
