I recently picked up a Macintosh SE for fun off TradeMe. It still runs fine but I would dearly like some installation discs to reformat the HDD with Mac OS 7 on this little beauty...and as a restore and recovery contingency.

Anyone out there with such discs that could help a fellow Mac Geek out? Cheers.

You should be able to download them from Apple here:

There is some useful information here: http://lowendmac.com/macos.shtml

Looks like you can legally obtain some versions of Mac OS 7.

Hope that helps,
Rich.
