Subject: OS for Tektronix 4170???

I have had this tek 4170, and 4105 terminal for over a year now.  I am only
using the terminal to call into the net, but the 4170 seems to be running
its self test all the way to the point where I should insert the OS disk.

thats where I run into trouble because I dont have my OS disk.  I called
Tek, and they want $295 (might as well be a thousand!) for a new disk and
      manual.  I cant afford that!
so I was hoping someone out here had a suggestion... I could really
use this computer (I mean its impressive to look at and all... but it would 
really be nice if it worked).

Any help would be appreciated.

                                       thanks in advance,
                                       tim (noah@wam.umd.edu)
