If you have access to a Mac with a SuperDisk (generally pre- Power Mac) you
can download a disk image, and create a bootable disk using the Apple util
DiskCopy.

That IIc+ is a nice find. That 3.5" 800Kdrive feels like a hard disk
compared with a 160K 5.25" drive, the IIc+ is also very fast compared with
the other 8 bit Apples, plus the elegant design, nice keyboard, and compact,
portable form-factor.  I find the ease of getting it out and setting it up a
big plus, since my wife makes me put my toys away when I'm done playing...
