O.K., so it's weird but I can admit it - I have an addiction to Kaypro computers!
My first kaypro went up to the big silicon valley in the sky a couple years ago, I was lucky enough to find another one on ebay for $17. Unfortunately I lost the boot disk! And if you're a CP/M freak like me then you'll know that the boot disk is machine specific, I have other Kaypro boot disks, but none for my own model (which is Kaypro2, not KayproII) So I'm asking, does anybody know of somebody who has a Kaypro, stored in a closet, the attic, or the basement? If they have a II, or a IV, or a 2X - then I want it! Or if they have a 2 boot disk, that'd be just as good. Thanks.

Thanks for the help BMW318i, they're older now and it's not easy finding used ones at thrift stores or computers repair shops anymore - but what can I say, I really enjoy using them!
TNM, the Kaypro is the absolute coolest portable computer ever made!

Ok found it. I'll extract the files tomorrow and email them to you. I even brought one home to clean up and mess with. Been years since I've powered it up

I didn't know anyone still used those. I was cleaning out my storage and threw out a big box (200-300) of 5 1/4" floppies.
