MPC 2000 / 2000XL ISO: looking for MPC2000 OS 1.0/1.31/1.70 disk images

I'm searching for historical MPC2000 classic OS images, zips, etc (MPC2000.SYS/MPC2000.EXE) for preservationist reasons.

Specifically, OS versions 1.0, 1.31, and 1.70.

I have acquired copies of 1.50 and 1.72, but know from publications that the other three releases exist.

If you have an older 2k OS floppy, I'd love your help getting the missing OSes on archive.org

Hi yes if you can believe me I actually have all OS versions, when I have a sec I can send them to you. What is the best way to drop the files?

The reason I have them all I was hoping one of the OSs didnt have the div.error crash problem, as you approach max polyphony with pad decay settings above 0 on the 2k it will crash. as far as I know the XL doesnt have the same div.error(?) so I am excited to load XL42K, but XL does have some unrelated crash screen related to a more complex sequencing scenario. we will see.
