I don't normally do DVDs but we are going to progressively find more abandonware in that form in the future. Anyway I think this one should definitely be here. Download will be slow relative to the size of the images, so I suggest that someone put another copy somewhere that has a fast download. max1zzz has checked that the files on his server are intact, so if you have a problem with recombining the parts then it will be an incomplete download of yours.
