I just stumbled upon this site, it may have been posted before but: 

https://winworldpc.com/library/operating-systems

I noticed it has a pretty extensive OS list, Even has the Apple System software. 

Even a Mac OS 8.2?

Yeah I’ve gotten tons of great software from that site!

Me too. I have found it interesting some of what they have.   Win Vista Betas!

I help run the place. Ask away.

Hmm, they were offline recently

Yes!

I know this site! I discovered it years and years ago, back when I was first getting started in this hobby.

They've had their ups and downs over the years (they were offline for awhile, too), but I'm amazed that they're still online!

Really cool site, I didn't know they were back up and running!  They've definitely helped my vintage computer hobby a lot over the years.

Not sure if you're allowed to say, IPalindromeI, but what happened this last time you guys were down?

Staff member left, we hit bus factor with the CMS which was in PHP; and rewrote it.

The new design is definitely cleaner and faster. Keep up the good work!

While it was probably technologically inferior, I did like the original v4 design. It relied a bit heavily on frames, though, which some older browsers (even back then!) didn't handle so well. Most notably, Netscape 4.x (I think? It's been so long I don't remember now. I do remember that it worked best on IE 5 and 6, though).
