OS 3.9 where to get

[swoslover]

I want to try OS 3.9, out of curiosity.

Is there anywhere I can get a copy?

Am actually in China and PB doesnt seem to work here.

Tried those sites but 40 bucks is a bit steep for something so outdated and not likely to be updated IMO.

Oh well will just use 3.0 instead.

Agree, but there's also been a lot of reports of people buying a "legal" copy of 3.9 from "dealers" only to have it arrive on a CD-R with a sloppy B & W printout in the jewel case.

If I'm going to be a thieving scumbag, I'd prefer to do it by my own accord rather than fill the pockets of people masquerading as "keeping the Amiga alive!".

Make sure whoever you choose to support isn't just DL'ing off TPB and burning copies.  Paying people to be pirates is worse than being one yourself, IMO.

Wonder if Haage and Partners would have a spare copy lying around

If I were to buy it would it actually come with documentation and a nice box etc.

I don't understand why it is so overpriced if it were 10 or even 20 euros more people would buy it rather than d/l it illegally.  But then I am Scottish and we are notoriously tight fisted.

Is there anything on WB 3.9 that would make it a more worthwhile  than say downloading some extras from Aminet?  

I only have WinUAE here while the Miggy lives in my mum's attic.

I managed to get this running now with WinUAE.

It only appears to have some of the capabilities working.

It boots to workbench ok but some of the items like the web browser are missing although they are on the file on my PC.

Is there something i am missing need to do?
