Yes, it's available from MOSIS Users Group, P.O. Box 22366, Knoxville,
TN 37933, or send email to:

The following is a writeup from MUG newsletter...

An earlier release of MAGIC, version 4, has been ported to both the DOS 
and OS/2 operating systems.  The DOS version contains a fully functional 
editor, but is limited in memory size, as well as some other functions 
(no CIF file exchange).  The OS/2 version is complete and requires 2 MBytes 
of RAM.  Both versions require EGA or VGA color graphics and a Microsoft-
compatible mouse.  Both versions of the software are being made available 
in binary form to anyone in the U.S. by the MOSIS Users' Group for just a 
$25 handling fee.  To order, contact:

     Bill Bryan, Chairman
     MUG Steering Committee
     P. O. Box 22366
     Knoxville, TN 37933
     Phone: 615-576-6844
     FAX:   615-576-2813
     Email: bryanwl@ornl.gov

I haven't used the OS2 version yet.  The DOS version that I have is a
bit buggy and not very complete so we haven't been doing much with
that either.  Sorry!
