How to get my hands on SWOS? was created by werthers
Hi everyone this is my first post here 
I recently downloaded Gobliiins 2 and got it working on pc and it brought many fond memories back so I thought I would look into getting SWOS working again on either Amiga or Pc.
I ve still got my old A500 and it still works but I don t have a copy of SWOS (i ve got the box but no discs!!!!) can I download it on a pc then copy it to floppy disc? or install a hard drive on my A500 and get it on there somehow? Or is Ebay my best bet?
Can I play it emulated on PC with my trusty old zipstick joystick? How would I go about doing this or is there anyother type of modern joystick that works well with it?
Thanks very much for any help
(oh and I love the font and the green and red boxes!)

You can download an ADF File to your PC and then copy it to an Amiga floppy disk using the ADF-Blitzer . Install a HD on your A500 is also possible, but SWOS needs more than 2MB of Ram to play it from HD. If you need such a HD with enough Ram, just PM me But it would be cheaper to buy an A1200 with Ramextension hehe...
